I've been looking at High Top models, trying to do a bit of my own research as to original and repro/fakes. About the only thing I think I've gotten figured out is that the early machines have the short arm with molded handle and later ones have a long handle with the round knob. I think....
I've seen that most I've found pay on one cherry. I found one somewhere that required 2 cherries to pay out. But only the one machine. And now I can't find it again... I've seen black, silver and buff/off white reel backgrounds. Original back doors but a single horizontal arm at the escalator.
Help please, I'm starting to think I've forgotten how to use Google!
