    So glad that places and people like this exist, so much history that would otherwise be lost

    One of the coolest penny museums I've ever seen. What an amazing and unique collection this nice man has. Thanks for taking us along to see it too, Jacob the Carpet bagger.

    This collection is outstanding. I’ve been looking into this older stuff for a while and have seen photos at best. It’s so cool seeing it live and functional.

    I’m not from US but it always amaze me how Carpetbagger is the bridge for other people to know about these people who tries to restore vintage stuff then open an attraction or museum. It makes me wanna go just for these roadside attractions and museums.

    Wonderful, especially the Wurlitzer, but basically every little detail that is being polished and cherished there. Those machines, at least to me, still retain something magical in comparison to modern day arcades. Thank you Jacob, Terry Evanswood and Steve Gronowski.

    Steve has a beautiful collection and amazing reproductions. I loved the Wurlitzer, it reminds me of the boardwalk at Seaside, NJ. They still have an antique carousel with an organ. Thank you Jacob for sharing your visit with Steve.

    I love antique penny arcade machines, and that was an astonishing collection, and that might be the most impressive Man Cave I've ever seen. I do, however, disagree with the "He who dies with the most toys wins" philosophy though. I believe that he who PLAYS with the most toys wins.
    Wow. Love from the Carpetbagger himself. I'm honored sir. Keep up the good work.

    Sweet vlog Jacob.There’s a similar tourist business back here in a place called Echuca, Victoria, Australia. It’s located in an old theatre. The business is called Sharpe’s Movie House And Penny Arcade. Been there heaps of times and it’s super cool. The town of Echuca is an old paddle steamer town situated along the mighty Murray River, my country’s biggest and longest river. It’s so awesome.

    I love those antique castings for the coin entry plates...just beautiful. "Grandmother Predictions" is my choice. Not sure if that's a Mike Munves or not, but it's way up on the cool scale.

    One of the coolest videos you have done. If you are ever out in Seattle, look up former NBA player Todd McCollough. He has a vintage coin op collection at his house 5x size of this! Also the invitation to visit my arcade in Virginia still stands, if you ever make it out my way.
