The Number Parade bandit

Post by treefrog »

Cannot give a name, but colourful sounds good for now. The seller of the below machine has stated of unknown maker and name even after talking to specialist collectors. Well I haven’t a clue and at thought it was yet another stimulator, but it is an actual gaming machine and pays out coins. Certainly different if not a little optimistic on the price.....haven’t put link but on eBay asking 850 for it....

The reels are interesting, all three are identical and (I'm guessing) 8 stop?

Where in the UK Tom? I don't want it but I might go and have a look at it. :o

It is on eBay, if it were 500 less I may have been interested

I've seen one of these ugly ducklings pictured somewhere years ago... possibly the same one. Memory fails... :!?!:

Only paying on "jackpots" would account for the apparently simple mechanism. Prizes of 3, 2 and 1D are astonishingly measly for a three reeler and would surely attract little play. The future-pay system wouldn't help either. Interesting curiosity as an all British pseudo bandit. Reminds me of that other ill-conceived, left-handed gambling machine:
