FOK revamp?

Does anyone recognize this Slot? Can't find a picture of it in my books. Could it be a rockola revamp?

That front is a Simplex front / conversion. I had one years ago that I sold to the late / great Stan Harris. It said Simplex on the reward card. Over the years I had 2 more of them. The interesting thing is that the top payout slide was extra tall, and, paid as I remember, 20 coins from that top slide in addition to 18 out of the other slides. All 3 of them I had paid this way. The 2nd two I had did not say Simplex on the cards, but the cards on them were shot or missing.

As Midcoast has mentioned, this revamp has a special made 20 coin slide on the top, for the Jackpot payout.
Those three jackpot windows down the front, are just dummies, but you can put coins in them for looks, if
one chooses. Besides this Mills version, Jennings also had an identical setup.

Here's a pix of the Jackpot coin slide in place, on a Mills "Operator Bell" w-Pace Triple-Jax revamp.

Do you have a photo of the Pace Triple-Jax front?

For a while, 3 jackpot fronts seemed to be all the rage.
It seems that when a visible JP came into style, adding a JP to an older bell was good, having 2 JPs was better and showing 3 was best.
