John Phillip Tuba's Pizza Theater Tokens

John Phillip Tuba Ice Cream Corporation operated ice cream emporiums in South Florida starting in 1981 before pivoting to the animatronic pizza-theater format in December 1983, when the corporation acquired three Don Ciccio's Big Cheese Pizza & Theatre locations (Coconut Creek Plaza, Pembroke Pines Plaza, and Pine Island Ridge Plaza in Davie) along with their Advanced Animations / Warner Technologies "Electric Mouse Orchestra" animatronic sets. Each of the three former Don Ciccio's sites was rebranded as a JPT Pizza Theater and operated under that banner until approximately 1990; the EMO sets featured animatronic mice on guitar/drums/keyboard with a trio of observing birds on a balcony.
