Shootem 1c coin-op dice game

I'm trying to find some information about a dice game I purchased. It's a table top 1 cent dice game titled "SHOOTEM". It has a glass dome with 6 small dice on a spinner. It has a cast aluminum body with a cast iron bottom door. The only markings are embossed "SHOOTEM" above the glass dome, and "1c" below. There are 4 tiny (and somewhat crooked) holes for an award card, but no frame for the card. It's 15" long (including the coin slide), 7 1/4" wide, and 4 3/4" tall. The game is not working; it's missing one or more connecting rods or bars between the coin slide and the spinner mech. I can get the spinner mech to work manually. I was really hoping to find a schematic for this game, but that's probably not going to happen. If anyone has any information about the manufacturer or any other details about this game, please let me know. Thanks, Bill

In the "Guide to Vintage Trade Stimulators & Counter Games" by Bueschel you will find your machine. Look on P98. If you don't have this book check on eBay. The book is a must have.

Shootem was made by Chicago Coin Machine Co. in 1933. Contact Bill Whelan to see if he has an award card. I will send you a privat message with his email & phone number.
