Description
This mechanical Nickelodeon from Silverton, Colorado, was in a Mae West and Marilyn Monroe movie. It was photographed at The Museum of The Mountain West in Montrose, Colorado.
This 1914 Nickelodeon Violano Virtuoso machine resides at the Museum of the Mountain West in Montrose, Colorado and is on display.
The MMW takes you back to the old west, circa 1840-1940. Guided tours allow you to enter historic buildings and sets and be "up close & personal" with rare and unusual artifacts displayed as they would have been at the time. In the main building store and office sets are completely furnished with historic artifacts and include: a saloon with unusual music machines, 2 doctor's offices, 2 dentist offices, grocery store, drug store, millinery, and dry goods store, plus other rare artifacts. On the grounds guests tour furnished historical buildings from western Colorado. A one-room school house, teacherage, 1913 church, 2 very early D&RG RR buildings, an 1880's Carriage Works (where Jack Dempsey trained), a general store, and a multitude of vintage cabins are displayed throughout the town of Adobe Flats on the 6 acre grounds.
