Rob 🏳️‍🌈 RMiddleton.Art<p>An entertainment technology that I've never heard of before features prominently in an old movie I'm watching, it's like a telephone jukebox. A unit hangs on a wall with speaker and mouthpiece into which user speaks over wire to an operator at a distant central location where the records are kept and played back. The movie has shown the system in a diner and in a nightclub. </p><p>🎥 X Marks the Spot, 1942 dir.
