Found on a hotrod forum.

And a couple of others.

Looks like an interesting machine that is sat between the two working models, anyone know what it is?

The working models pictured are based at the Museé Mécanique at Fishermans Wharf in San Franscisco... I went there about 6 years ago, amazing place, with over 200 machines, some new and many older machines. Below are a couple of videos to get an idea of what's there... You would need to do some more surfing to find this machine.

From memory I think that's the late 1920s All American Baseball in a re-cased cabinet. Though the marquee mistakenly says it's the 1937 Rockola version which was copied from the earlier machine. I think there was a fire in the 60s that ruined some of the original cabinets. Some amazing games there but, as they've been workhorses for so long, many are in average working cond.

Found a picture, the machine is a musical box as below. There is a baseball machine there, also Byrans Magic machine and Ahrens Cycle Racer and many other classics.
