Turn back the clock!
Hi , I have just seen this on ebay, Bryans 12 win clock, made in 1897! item No.180359725825.. Mr W E Bryan must have made this one on his third birthday as far as I know he was not born untill 1894
Re: Turn back the clock!
Taken from melvyn's site. "William Edward Bryan was born in 1894, and opened up his slot machine factory at Kegworth, Derbyshire (England) in 1920."
Also says that the 12 win clock was introduced in 1947!!! haha

Precocious little beggar WE Bryan wasn't he, I believe he was 12 when he built Drayton Manor Park where he was born.
Going back to the advert I see ................
"not too sure on whether it will currently works or not" ....................must apply to the jackpot having coins in it which they think implies it has a coin jam.
I see they're also selling a Bang & Olufsen music system, I wonder if it's the new fangled one that plays 78s via a clockwork motor?
