Re: Bajazzo Clown

Hi all, I have a 10_ number machine (too cold tonight to go out to the workshop & find exact number). It does have some original tokens with the matching number, My machine clearly was built with the same tokens on show slide as the featured machine, but has been changed to the simpler one rolls...

Hi everyone, I recently purchased a clown with a few old tokens jambed in various corners, & with a bit of freeing up of the mech & a bit of adjustment it now works just fine. The tokens (5 or 6 of them) are marked differently including "clown", "Bajazzo", & "N.A...
