Well some one here maybe interested but im posting on behalf of a friend of mine who is selling a trade stimulator slot machine.
It is a very nice example
I bought one off him unrestored and I plan on restoring mine to this level.

If any one is interested in a very rare hard to find cigar/gumball trade stimulator feel free to Pm me an ill pass on his details.
It takes American 1cents and works like any slot machine and ive included a picture of the insides

The brand is IMP. Bally at one point was making IMP trade stimulators as well as other companies depending on the year of manufacture.
This one is dated around the time Bally was making IMP so it could very well be a bally IMP.

Another interesting fact
If you have ever heard the saying "close but no cigar"
well that saying originated from people using these machines when they might have got two out of the three wheels alined and didnt win the cigar.
so close but no cigar.

Is That why they made computers and iphones?   

So where are you going to put it?

[ddstoys]

[guyricho]

Stuffed if I know lol

They dont take up very much room  


anyways what other coin opp items do people have?

[guyricho]

Does any one here have one of those vintage glass top hot nut vending machines?

Im actually considering buying one
They look like an old gum ball machine except they heat up the nuts

I am starting t like the old ford blown glass dome top gum ball machines also

Does any one collect them? I would love to see the various types there are and maybe some information about them from a collector  

I am wanting to know what ones I should be on the lookout for

Regards Rich

My latest addition

[ddstoys]

Ok you have my attention!!!!   I might have a new coin slide if that ones broken

[faza]

Very observant Daniel yes the coin mech is a bit damaged I have been looking into my options let me know what you have?

[guyricho]

do you have the original dice for this game? the original dice are worth a fortune
if you have them that is a great item.

Thats a 1934 Horse shoe, or a Select em by exhibit supply

I actually know some one who has a spare NOS top with decals for that game, dice and the little anti cheat ball that sits in the small circle.

The mechs can be bought from crow river but they dont sell the top cover if you dont have that
