Re: CAM AUTOMATICS?
Penny Flash.
Excluding the pushers, that's 8 different types!
These machines could make a nice collection for someone

Re: Crompton Cover The Spot flyer
This is the first machine I ever remember playing. There was one of these on the North pier in Blackpool in about 1972. We were on holiday at the time and mum and dad gave me 10d to play the slot machines, I was only about 7!
Happy days!
Happy days!

Re: Old copies of Coin Slot
Thanks for that slotalot, it was very interesting. :cool: I'm always on the look out for anything to do with E/M fruit machines from the 60's and 70's. Here's the link again for anyone else who wants to have a look because the original isn't working! http://www.lentontimes.co.uk/images/gallery/leen_...

Re: Bell Fruit - Wildcat
I'm forced to disagree with you there, Badpenny! according to my research she DID come first, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_United_Kingdom In the same year, 1967, she came 5th (4th runner up) in the Miss World contest, http://www.geocities.com/kingdomofmissworld/world1961-1970.html Accurate info...

Bell Fruit - Wildcat
Assuming it's the machine pictured.
Miss Jenny Lewis, the winner of Miss UK 1967 appears on the front glass
and the machine dates from 21/6/69.
Hope that's of some help to you

Re: **WANTED**
After nearly 5 weeks of searching and loads of phone calls later I've finally found the person that's in charge of the CD archive.

Re: **WANTED**
Your sugestions could be very helpful!!! I never even thought about Microfiche but now you mention it that sounds like the best option, at least I should be able to get some continuity and possibly even obtain every issue from the start.

Re: **WANTED**
Hi "Penny Machines", Yes, I do intend publishing a book, but I think the way things are going that could be several years off! The problem is, my main source of information is the "Coin Slot" Newspaper and these are very hard to come by. So it's all dependant on how quickly I can...

Old copies of Coin Slot
To help with my historical record of amusement arcades and amusement machines I'm searching for old copies of the "Coin Slot" newspaper. I'm looking to buy any pre 1990 editions and there's cash waiting! "Coin Slot" caters to the amusement industry and during the relevent period ...
