What about the plate on the front that prevents the cigarette falling to the floor?
I think this looks very fresh compared to the rest of the machine, maybe re-made?

These early JPM machines (each way nudger, etc.) were the first true electronic machines and had a fantastic new feature... you could nudge the reels down and UP ! They were generous machines and rewarded skilful players and were tremendously popular. No percentage controller on these early games an...

I also need B M Co auto payout parts... Has anyone ever tried to get these recast?

Here's a Brenco Triple Tap still in use at Dingles Fairground Heritage Centre. Different payouts to the previous picture.

P.E. stood for Phonographic Equipment of Ladbroke Grove in London.who were the importers of Bally fruit machines.
The tokens with a whole in the middle were 3d in value and the solid ones were worth 6d.

what did you type in to find this?
Jackpot or bosoms?

according to Paul Braithwaites book there was a company called
General Amusements corporation in the 20sand 30s in which Granville Bradshaw had an interest.Possibly a connection?

I think these back lit display units were known as Panascopes.

I seem to remember Keeneys running on 50 volts

The New Yorker machine is an Ace machine or someone's conversion of an Ace machine. Ace machines were amongst the early electro mechanicals and were very popular in their day and were made by a company in South Wales - you occasionally see their tokens for sale on ebay 6d per play and probably the f...

I see what you mean

Thanks for that lead Slotalot

I'm not sure if it would be win too easy - personally I have found some of the B M Co allwins extremely hard to win on. When I find a 1 1/4" rubber ball I'll try it and let you all know.
Do you think it's worth checking with Bobby Vee for a rubber ball?

This latest photo shows a Win Easy with payout knob and cup - presumably to reward a winning shot with both a coin and free ball.

Thanks for that great bit of detective work PennyMachines - I see it's also listed in Paul Braithwaite's book.
Now all I need to do is find a ball for it - any ideas?

Can anyone offer info on this domino themed allwin?
It uses a 1 1/4" ball - presumably not steel, running on a flat brass track. Brass is also the choice of material for the painted backface.
The lucky player receives only his coin back - no ball to replay!

I'm hoping to get some coin entries for Bryans Payramids recast in brass as per the originals. It would mean doing a small batch to make it viable...so if you need one please get in touch

i meant to say three or four weeks ago

Is this the same one that sold on ebay three or four ago for £550?
(before i could get my bid on)

Hello, Mechanical fruits often have an anti cheat device which disables the payout when the machine is played without inserting a coin.You need to take a look around the escalator which is the device at the top which receives the inserted coins and moves them to the payout tube. there should be a le...
