Re: interesting dice machine on ebay

I have a copy of an old advert with this game, my Rebound and another trade stim. I'd love to one day own all three games with the flyer hanging with them.

Re: 1940s Silver King Duck Hunt

Hey Moonriver you only get one shot per coin and you get a gumball even if you miss the duck.

1940s Silver King Duck Hunt

Well my latest addition to the collection has arrived it's a Silver King Duck Hunt.

For those who don't know this game fires your coin at the duck targets up the back then pulling the knob at the front it vends a gumball.

Re: 1952 Genco 400 vertical pinball

I've managed to keep my gremlin away from harming my machine by keeping him on top of one of my pinball test benches. Works out well because whatever is coming in there already has issues.

Re: 1940s Groechen IMP trade simulator

I've been informed by the guy who put me onto this machine that it's more likely late 1920s to early 1930s, which makes it the second oldest piece in my collection.

This one only vends gum but have been offered another that vends a token which I'm so tempted to buy but not until I get my silver ki...

1940s Groechen IMP trade simulator

Added a new toy to my collection - it's a Groetchen IMP trade simulator. It's similar to a slot machine with the three reels but to hide the gambling side it's designed to look like a speaker or radio and vend a gumball. If you got three of a kind you would be awarded a pack of smokes or a cigar. Th...

Re: 1930s Atlas Grip tester restoration

Well decals have been applied and everything was given a test assemble. I need to fabricate a couple of internal brackets to stop the handle flexing and something for the front bolts to thread into.

When it arrived these brackets were external and looked terrible.

Getting close now
