Well I have to say a huge thank you to those who have contributed to this post; I've just spent a lovely relaxing hour or so reading through it and looking at those wonderful machines. For those of you who aren't aware, I own a fairgound hire company and the Mrs has wanted to add an arcade to the bu...

It's 5 cents carefully made into 6d. for the British market, probably by the Samson Novelty Co., if the 20-stop number reels are anything to go by. I've yet to own a Victoria 'B'.

Well for my sins I caved into the Mrs who fell in love with a ghastly kitsch 'Star Express' all singing and dancing wall machine and for the life of me, I can't find anything about them at all. You probably all saw it (and dodged a curve ball by moving on :HaHa:) on eBay at £295, and as the Mrs was ...
