I have an early wooden machine. Looks similar to a Cooper, but does not have the "C" in the award card frame. It does have the distinctive coin head that is Cooper style. Does not have Peacock symbols on strips. Mech is early Jennings or Mills. There are casting stamps on a a few parts that show LB, then a number. Similar to a Mills number that says MLB . I'm thinking early Fey machine with those castings meaning Liberty Bell?
I have posted on forums on Facebook and have had some interesting theories on which machine this is. Most unusual in complete wood case. Upper casting is not metal as found in early Jennings. If anyone has knowledge, or theory in this machine, I would be interested in hearing from you.
thank you
