Need help in identifying 3 slot machines

[heightspf1]

Hello,

I'm new to the forum.

A guy down the street from me wants to sell me 5 old slots he has in the basement.
I know what of them 2 are but I’m not sure about the other 3, as they look close to some
pictures I have found but not a exact match.

I have named each picture with what I think they are.
Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Bill

The Watling is the Wonder Vender model. It was part of the Rol-A-Top and Treasury line up. This was the cheapest of the models offered at that time. A lot of the parts were interchangeable with all models. Note the large jackpots. The models which preceeded this were the Blue Seal models which had the small twin jackpots. The bottom casting was repainted at some point. It should be painted with the same shade of yellow as is around the reel window. Fortune strips are correct. This machine was made starting in the mid 30's up to WWII. Hope this helps

Thanks Watlingboy,

I could find pictures of some that looked like the top of the machine
and then I could find pictures of some that looked like the bottom of the machine.

They had special steel stands made for each machine that locks around the base of the machine.

Thanks,
Bill

ON THE MILLS YOU SHOULD REPLACE THE CHERRIES WITH DIAMONDS AS THEY DID NOT COME THAT WAY FROM MILLS. THE DIAMOND FRONT WAS ALL DIAMONDS. THE STANDS I BELIEVE WERE ACTUALLY MADE BY MILLS AS THE ORIGINALS ALL HAVE THE MILLS LOCK IN THEM.
I ACTUALLY HAVE ONE OF THOSE STANDS. HAVE YOU TRIED TO REMOVE THE MACHINES FROM THE STANDS YET? THERE IS A SPECIAL LENGTH ALLEN WRENCH THAT YOU USE TO RELEASE THE FRONT BAR IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN.
HAVE FUN WITH THEM.

Hi Monti,
Thanks for the reply. On the cherry and diamond one it says Buckley right under the coin window under the pay table. The cerry and the diamonds look to have been on a long time.

As far as enjoying them, not yet! they changed the price on me!

In July she had an offer of 4k for all of them and wanted 5k.
so i offer 4k she tells me she wants 6k so i tell her the best i can do is 5k

and no deal!
she tells me the grand kids enjoy them to much to sell them for 5 grand!!!
