This three-reel machine is a tabletop version of the more commonly seen floor model vendor. This example is without the lower vending cabinet, though it still advertises for a package of mints with every nickel played. The consignor believes this to be a factory made tabletop model, rather than a cut-down version. An early machine with an oak cabinet, manufactured by Mills Novelty Co. in 1911. The front casting displays ornate cast iron decoration such as the trim and payout cup, topped with a matching coin head. The original three reel strips and award card complete this remarkable slot machine. CONDITION: There is minor surface wear and the housing appears to be lightly tarnished on the sides. In working condition, this machine plays and pays. Showing a repair and small piece missing from the front wood behind one of the decorative metal columns. Includes one key and a stand. The stand shows some wear to the finish and is open at the back.
