Very nice transformation. Did you use one of the previously Faked "Golden Nuggets", and replace the Cherry castings?
If you really wanted to make your customers Wife happier than Dorothy & Toto, I would have made up a brand new set
of reel strips, with all the characters on them. Like the Cowardly Lion on the Cherry stops, and so forth. And of coarse
the Wizard would be on the Bar stops. Think about it, and run it by them. You may just have the machine back in your
shop for a second go-around.
A friend, and slot collector, (who has since passed on), had a Graphic Arts Studio & Photo business in San Francisco, that
printed up a set of reel strips, and new award card, with different types of rolls of film on them, and installed them in a
Watling "Roll-A-Top", that was in his front showroom. If the customer got the winning combination, as indicated on the
card, they would get the rolls of film as the reward. The payout slides were not in operation. Hence, making it legal to
operate at his business, which by-the-way was just a few blocks from the main police station. Even some of the beat cops
would stop in to play it occasionally.
