This Cremona J was originally sold by W.H. Aton, a distributor in Baraboo, Wisconsin, to S.U. Teefle for his tavern in the same city. William Kugler, a pioneer collector from Minneapolis, was its second owner. Its third and current owner is the Place de la Musique Collection in Chicago. |

Upper interior of the restored early Cremona J. Like the Seeburg H and Coinola X, it has solo capability for the pipes and bells. The tambourine and castanets were added, copied from those instruments in the smaller Cremona Style K. |
