One of Ron`s top ten of his favorite machines! Without a doubt the mechanism is quite unique and so different than other early single or three reelers. A player would choose his “city”, deposit a nickel and pull the handle. Upon pulling the handle, the selection knob would recede thus not allowing a player to alter his selection. If your “winning city” came up you would have been paid out accordingly. In remarkable, untouched, all original finish condition, this machine also has intricate castings and virtually no apologies being needed. The machine still has its original cash box within and two tiny holes on top casting where a marquee could have been but to date no Tourist has surfaced with a marquee. Circa 1912. Includes key.
Condition: (Very Good - Excellent).
Item Dimensions: 13" x 12-1/2" x 21"
