Chuck Wagon Cafe & Musical Museum in Atoka
By Max Huff

Does anyone recall any details about the owner and the collection at
the Chuck Wagon Cafe in Atoka, Oklahoma?  I visited there several times
in the 1950's and immediately became hooked on mechanical music.

I remember hearing about a devastating fire there in the 1970's or
80's, but no details.  I picked up a couple of photos yesterday on eBay
showing a part of the collection.  I was always curious about the owner
and if everything was destroyed.
