Surprisingly this is a photo of the first slot machine in Atlantic city (at least officially) according to the Atlantic City casino and gaming association, seem Atlantic city missed out on all the classic Mills and Jennings machines!!

I think you're wrong about this, the 50's German mechs do, as you say, a job but it's a poor show compared to a bell-type mech. The standard Mills type mech was designed to withstand long harsh treatment, protect against fraud, act as a safe in a public place, and yet still be variable enough to off...

It looks like a careless re paint job. And the lower cabinet/stand has a decal of an eagle. Was this original? Defi...
