David Rockola

Maybe this is old news and nobody would be interested but here is an article about David Rockola. My grandfather was friends with David and did quite a bit of contracting work for the Rockola company and played cards with him and maybe other slot machine business men. Anyway my grandfather got his Mills FOK revamp from the man himself. Enjoy the reading and hometown history.

Looking for survivor machines especially vendor fronts or original side vendors with or without
a machine. 1920's-30's goosenecks, round escalators. I enjoy hand painting the castings.

Interesting read. What a time to be alive, and see all of that close-up.
Slowly building a knowledge base on E2000 series Bally machines and J400 Jennings. Started with the antique Mills and Jennings. Getting there...
