| While we are on this thread, in the 1937 Laurel & Hardy film, "Way 
Out West", what appears to be a Symphonion table top disc player 
sits atop a safe in Mickey Finn's (James Finlayson) parlour.  
Meanwhile, downstairs in the saloon, at the left of the bar, sits 
a rare ca. 1905 double Caille machine, which appears to be the Venus
model(?).  The window which displays the musical mechanism is clearly 
visible in passing. 
What appears to be a superbly restored version of one of the boys'
finest works can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/6sCPfrw1Gf4 
Watch out for the gag centred around the beautiful National cash 
register.
Enjoy!
