Re Philip Shefras? allwins
The mech was the same as yours. They seem to be better made than the OW. The whole mech is well engineered, particularly the payout, suggesting they made quite a few, or intended to.

Re Philip Shefras? allwins
Yours are definitely not OW - I have seen a few from your manufacturer but they have all been in plywood cases. I suspect yours has been put in an oak cabinet to make it look more attractive - there were a lot of oak Parkers' cases around a few years ago that would fit this machine. I have added a c...

Philip Shefras? allwins
These are not made by Olly Whales - I don't know who made them, but there are a few variations. I will attach a pic of an O.W. Fruit Polo.
I put the wrong picture on, then tried to edit it, then got both! Still it gives you an idea of what Olly Whales should look like.

Re: Fortune teller TELEFORTUNE
Hi, I used to have 2 of these. Interestingly, the big red light is from the back of a Morris Minor. You may also recognise the dials - they are headlamp surrounds and a tax disc holder! They also used a Dansette record player slightly modified so it would only play one track from the record.

Re: Circle Skill and variants
There was one in Hunt's last auction in excellent condition, I have seen several versions of these, a 3 and 4 cup winner, also a profit sharer. The mechs are quite complex, more bits than an allwin. They are pre-war, not that rare. I think the vending version is the most common.
Cheers, Dave.

Payramid
I always thought the Payramid with the top entry casting had a side opening case. If this statement is correct, then the case is wrong, but I am not a Bryans fanatic, so don't quote me

Domino, Lucky Dice, Juge de Paix, Roll Out the Barrel etc.
Hi, it looks more or less complete, The linkage is there for the dice shaker (he shakes it when you turn the handle). The main bit for the win (he raises his glass) is there, but the link is missing. This is just a bit of bent wire.
Cheers, Dave.

Revamped Beromat-type Bandits
These are recased German Beromats. I have had one with the maker's name on. I think these revampers came from Southend.

Re: Bajazzo
Hi, I would think it was a British one. Does it have letters stamped on the side of the case at the top? I have one stamped P.M.W.G, which is Pessers, Moody, Wraith and Gurr.

Condition was a problem. Some with odd bits stuffed in the back, most not working, though some examples were very original. I think the main problem was the venue. I think London being the worst place to hold an auction, with limited parking, meters, if you could find one, £3 an hour limited to 2 ho...
