Re: Punch and Judy Allwin - rough value?
I think this nicely illustrates the different thinking of an operator and a collector. Of course you can have operators who are also collectors. I once got a bit of a telling off from John Carter, at an Auction, when I mentioned it was nice to see him back collecting. ( this was soon after his dispe...

Re: Confused Puppet Show?
I'd definitely try to save the side with the clown motif. I was thinking along the same lines as moonriver, to reinforce from the inside. But then I can't look at it in the flesh. Judging by the ride you certainly have the skills to do it justice.

Re: Confused Puppet Show?
Definitely reproduce the clown motif if you can't save the original.

Re: Confused Puppet Show?
Great job on the ride!
If you can do that, puppet show will be fine.
Look forward to seeing the progress.

The Disc Musical Box book
I do collect coin in the slot machines other than those made by Bryans! A few years ago I bought this disc player from an Elephant House Auction. It's probably the oldest machine I own, being late 1890s and, after quite a lot of work, plays very well. 20240120_101056a.jpg 20240120_101110a.jpg Whilst...

Re: Arcade Photographs
I`ve not seen that one before. But by a strange coincidence I own a real photo which is very similar!

Re: Nice row of cast iron machines
I have talked to sweetmeats about this machine. I believe this is the Clacton p/c we looked at. I still can't make out the wording. The machine does appear on several p/c's in my collection, but these are the clearest images I have.

Have you been at the sherry already?
By the way here's a "K" I think you must have dropped one.
Hope you all have a very Happy New Year!

Re: Bryans Gapwin Project
As usual PM beat me to it, mind you I was safely tucked up in bed when I read BP`s post and too tired to answer!
The thumb stop position in the oak is definitely correct. I have several machines with this feature.
It can be seen in this original Bryan's Flyer.

Re: Bryans Rockets for restoration on ebay
Great find treefrog. Looks to be all there, will make a super machine when finished. You are lucky the bead and barrel moulding is mostly there round the ply front. It`s impossible to find!

Re: BM co
I agree JC, the option to buy from PM was suggested in the first reply by 13rebel, so I assumed that led77 had tried that.
