The top board on my Wurlitzer 2150 is held in place by several screws. The back 2 screws also have ~2 inch leaf springs (for lack of a better term), which press against the board. I have to believe these were used to hold cards in place, much like a pinball machine has a place on the front apron to hold instruction and pricing cards. However, I can't seem to find any images of this, or similar jukeboxes are using the clips to hold anything down. So, I am curious as to their purpose (maybe some completely other purpose). And, if they did hold down a card, what did the cards typically have on them?
Thanks

Hi Mr. Goat,
It would be my GUESS (especially if the glass is clear in front of it), that this is where the"personalization" info would be placed ??

Yes, it is behind the glass. The 2150 has that big round record holder in the middle. There are two decorative 'shelf boards' that surround the record holder and fill in the horizontal plane of the jukebox. There are 4 screws that hold each decorative shelf in place. The back two screws have these clips on them, which certainly appear to be designed to hold down a card of some sort. When you say personalization info, are you taking about an ad for the establishment where the jukebox is being used or the setup of the jukebox in terms of number of plays per dime, quarter?

Hi Brooks,
OK--you made me dig out the old Always Jukin ref. book--does not show them, also does not show what I was thinking it was--so,I guess I dono ! Ron Rich

Hi Brooks,

Have a look in the Archive section on the Stamann website www.jukebox-world.de at the pictures on there of the 2150.
