C. 1902. A very rare version of this most difficult-to-find Watling cast iron Cupid slot machine. This one-of-a-kind example comes with dual coin entries, one for a US nickel and one for a Canadian nickel. This particular example was most likely located in a border community to Canada, Like Buffalo, NY, or Detroit, Michigan, as indicated by the dual coin entry. Additionally, this great machine is equipped with a side vending gum machine, which you can see has been with this slot since its manufacture. Truly a gem for any collector and a cornerstone for any gambling collector. CONDITION: All original aged patina to the complete case, with all original parts, including the wheel. The decal on the front glass is possibly a replacement. There is a very well-done repair to the back corner of the case, visible only with close inspection and mentioned for accuracy. Includes keys.

This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made.

Condition: (Excellent).

Item Dimensions: 26" x 21" x 65".
