    Ace Music was started in 1974, by Jeffery Collins at the age of 18. I just graduated from H.S. and worked for a competitor that my dad sold out to. Pat Collins, my dad started Collins Music in 1953 and sold out in 1970. The jukeboxes have changed from 45 rpm to CD, and now to Digital Downloading which allows up to around a million songs available on a jukebox.

  Morris Vending Co.

  • Repair / Service

    • 1976 - 1979

    I serviced and maintained Williams, Gottlieb, Bally, and Chicago Coin pinball machines, Rowe AMI Jukeboxes. I helped with service on Rowe cold drink can and syrup machines, and National cigarette and candy vending machines. My dad and I eventually bought out the route that consisted of the jukeboxes and games from Morris Hockett in 1979 and added it to Ace Music's route.
