Mills 3 Bells 1946 model. Never really caught on after the war as to big and complicated.

Think the last year was 47??

Feel sorry for the operators that had these on location, absolute bastard to work on.

I love the look with that Art Deco top sign which is nearly always missing!

The thrill of winning the Jackpot is video #2.(make sure you have the sound up for this)

Think I woke half the street up when I played that jp video at 5.30am this morning....

Great to see these big old beasts up and running though, so well done and thanks for the videos. You sometimes don't realise when you buy an old em game how much noise they generated on site compared to the same noise in a collector's home environment.

A couple of well presented videos. Am I right in assuming that the owner is a Forum member?

I don't think Zelda & Chris are members here. Hopefully they'll join, especially now Rippy's abandoned us. :-(
I've just issued them an invitation via youtube.

Here's their YouTube channel: Amusements Revisited

So sorry, I've literally only just seen these messages. Busy painting winter fairground projects and yes doing lots of YouTube video's. Thanks so much for enjoying them and sharing on this page, I know Zelda mentions how wonderful the PennyMachine.co.uk has been for her research, hope that's okay! Hoping to do lots more Penny Arcade video's, this year. :tarah:

Your winter fairground projects sound like a blast – I'm picturing a cozy scene with twinkling lights and the scent of hot cocoa. And those YouTube videos, man, they're a real mood lifter! I've been diving into Zelda's recommendations lately, and I have to agree, PennyMachine.co.uk is a gem. It's been a game-changer for my own research – such a treasure trove of info. Hope you don't mind me joining the fan club! Your Penny Arcade videos are a delight.

You're so right about those YouTube videos; they're like a little slice of happiness, aren't they? I haven't checked out PennyMachine.co.uk yet, but after hearing your rave reviews and seeing your enthusiasm, I'm definitely intrigued. Thanks for the recommendation! And hey, welcome to the fan club – I think I might have to join too!

Have any of you tried exploring ......
I have deleted the details and link.
Pennymachines.co.uk is a website dedicated to those marvellous vintage British mechanical amusements and all who enjoy them. It doesn't support gambling per se nor does it promote websites that do. Hence this edit.
