Rare Roco-Ola Jukebox for sale

Hmm..

The description says;

"new top glass with rock-ola printed on it"

I wonder if he's noticed?

Doghouse,
I would bet that it was in Mexico, at the time the glass was replaced--"Rocoloa" is the Mexican word for jukebox-- Ron

Could be, Mexico to Crewe, England, seems a bit of a stretch.
There's a lot of that model that come up for sale on eBay in the UK, so I guess like several other common models they were made for the UK.

But then it says ROCO - OLA and he says it's a new top glass.

I bet he ordered it from some sign maker and it was his mistake.
