The Broughs' memorabilia included old-fashioned arcade machines. Here, a wooden claw machine can be seen on the right, filled with old toys. The claw was operated by hand, after depositing sixpence in the slot.

On the left sat a Rowe Ami jukebox from the 1960s, advertising hits of the era from Elvis Presley and Dean Martin. Along the back wall, a coin-operated punch strength tester invited users to pull the ball down gently, then take a "good straight punch."

One corner of the room was devoted to sailing mementos, including buoys, life preservers and model ships. To complete the theme, a book about the Titanic sat on the table.

Alan Brough had modeled part of the room on a traditional British saloon bar. An antique Anker cash register sat on the counter surrounded by glassware and silver tankards.
