I haven't seen one these in quite a while.
As i recall, it is called a "PRINCE", or, was made by Prince manufacturing.
Some one in Chicago was making table lamps out the castings in the mid 70's.
You would pull the handle to turn it on and off.
A three reeler is a slot machine with 3 reels that spin, as opposed to a "wheel machine", which has a wheel (or disc) that spins.

This is a machine manufactured by Silver King Novelty. I have a restored one in my collection.

Your machine was made by King Equiptment Co. In Benton Harbor, Mi. Is it for sale, I'm interested.
