Looking for a basic machine, have trade items
Posted: Sat Mar 06, 2021 2:56 pmHi all,
I'm looking for a not-too-expensive basic standard mechanical slot machine, like a High Top or something normal and common. Doesn't have to be pristine, in fact, complete but needing cleaning/rehab (but isn't a basket case) would be great. New to the hobby but having a great time taking things apart and greasing them. The cleverness of some of these machines is pretty amazing.
I have some trade items if anyone is interested: a very good condition Chrome Vest Pocket with Mills lock and key, and a good (some rust on the award flap, chipped paint, aftermarket lock) painted one.
(If you're interested in 1920s mechanical but non-slot things, I have a Comptometer and a very nice Brunsviga pinwheel calculator as trade bait too.)
pics on request!
I'm near Baltimore, and a couple hours drive is no problem. I'm not against shipping, but probs something like a QT would be easier to deal with than a 100lb chunker.
whatcha got?
