Again, as usual a splendid job Stuart.

My only wish is that near the beginning you hadn't rushed past the machine with the large case containing the life size mannequin (25 secs.).
I'm puzzled that it appears in shot again at the end and the doll has disappeared?

Slot machines at the Paris Pinball museum

Perhaps it's been mentioned before and I've missed it, but I just stumbled on this video of the slot machines in the Paris Pinball museum. To be honest, the slots would fill a good museum on their own, must be a dozen Watling machines alone!

Sprechen die Deutsch?



I just put this site in the Archive: http://alte-spielautomaten.de

It has a really good history of Max Jentzsch's Leipzig company.

Worlds biggest private slot collection

Post by coppinpr »

Topic moved & merged - Site Admin.

I dont know if this has been shown on the forum before,I cant find it. It is a great video showing an amazing selection of machines, it also touches on two threads running just now.
1.The unusual Bingo Buckley being discussed came from this collection

2. 5min 30sec into this video you catch a glimpse of several machines much like the "nine holes golf" that has a thread running,would these be US made?

I replied to your video on youtube before. Your collection very much reminds me of the kind of collection I and a friend of mine have, a deep and eclectic collection of coin-operated electro-mechanical and mechanical machines from around the world.
(and yet amongst our three collections, there is minimal duplication)

Still curious as to what your upright Circus machine is.

The upright circus machine is a 1945 Williams Circus Romance.

Well! That's some games room. No wonder you have got room for the Golf game. You are a lucky chap, and so is your wife! Get rid of that sofa and get some more machines. :lol:
