Rob,
The paper under the stepper is there because the armature is magnetized, and whomever put it there did not know what else to do--did you notice the replacement tone arm--the worst one Seeburg ever made ! I loved the green "G" button (for "GO", maybe ?)--
And BTW--that is NOT a "R-100", it's a model, HF 100 R. Ron Rich

Oh, when I first saw this last evening I fumed a bit at the state of that machine. I hadn't been able to listen to the audio as the sound in that room was in use for guests.
When I later viewed it again it became apparent that this fellow is a electronics repairman/hobbyist and this was his first juke.
I invited him to join this, and other forums if he has questions.

PS: I know what you mean by that tonearm reference...You are not foolng me:-)
