Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!

I have one of these which was in storage for at least sixty years and, I believe, all original apart from the motor. The top pediment is a bit different.

Re: Burstow and Hewlett Sale

I was bidding on the footballer as I was arriving in Plymouth on one of the last ferries out of Spain! Didn't really want to fetch it though, so stopped bidding early. Just wished they had postponed the auction.

Re: Victorian wall hanging circus astrology game machine

I did leave a mid 500 bid on this, so it wouldn't have been that cheap if you hadn't bid. Funny thing was I left much more on it first time around. !PUZZLED!

Re: OK, let's talk RARE one arm bandits....

Re: OK, let's talk RARE one arm bandits....

I own that machine. Unfortunately someone had started to strip it. I left it for years as I liked it as it was. Then had room for it in the arcade so did strip the rest of the paint off.

Re: Edgerton Double Loop identified

Hi Daveslot. Did you source some composite balls or are using chrome/stainless steel? If the former could you let know where from? Also could you possibly upload a picture of the mechanism?
