Re: Can anyone identify the Mexican bandits?
I have this pic in my library somewhere and from (poor) memory recall they were Skelly machines - I.E. pre-Pace.

Re: Aussie Pokies
' So old pre-decimal Aussie coins not allowed '? You ask? In the the 600+ pages of Vic gambling regs, the section pertaining to home-ownership expressly forbids the ownership of 'any gambling device' that redeems a monetary reward or prize. This applies even in your own home. The question about coin...

Re: Aussie Pokies
G'day drphat, welcome to PMs - The Best slotty Site. Andy P here in Melbourne too. Nice little 20c Aristo at the end there. If I may offer a little friendly advice; Be Very Careful as these machines are illegal to own here in Vic, the fine for ownership is up to $10,000.00 per machine and a compulso...

Re: Morphy auction January 2017
Just stumbled upon this old thread again and hoping TF that the Coronet is giving you as much pleasure as Badpe ,,, err ,, mine does to me?
I never managed to contact Mr. Barry Goldfarb the previous owner and wonder whether you have asked him how/when/where he came across it?
Cheers,

Re: Aristocrat Arcadian 65 needs repair
Not that I've read the entire thread, but you know the forward tip/base of the real brake that looks similar to an upturned cupped hand? Well they can be twisted up or down slightly too. It sorted the issue with one of my machines years ago so may be worth a go?

Re: Movie, TV or famous ownership provenance
On the slightly off-topic subject of provenance - and no connection to film, my 1929 nickel Mills Poinsettia was 'discovered secreted behind a false wall in a small out building being demolished in Nevada'. Said out building was supposedly a hidden gambling den run by a Mr Tony Cornero during the co...

Ah G'day mate,
Greets from Melb.
Sounds like someone's put a dodgy coin in so just give the coin head a good check & clean. She'll be apples then cobber.

Apols for the delay in replying (been arranging dearest old friend's cremation and construction tenders are flooding in). Thx Tom for the PM. Well, the cast base plate, frame and various parts have Middlehurst & Sons Sydney or M&S cast in relief. 3331 is stamped in the reel window frame and ...

Re: Aussie laws gone crazy
Sorry for the late response but would like to contribute my two (old) penny's-worth. Way back in the early nineties when I decided I wanted to buy old one-armed bandits - antique ones, not ex-club Aristocrats from over the border in NSW (I'm VIC), I sought advice from the Gov't gambling regulator an...

Re: Machines wanted
Hello Pete, Andy P here down in Upsidedownland. I have 13 antique Mills/Jennings/Watling & Keeney machines which sadly, due to loss of job have to be off-loaded. Probs not best for an arcade but if you're a collector of truly wonderful old slots mine are pristine, 100% ridgy-didge originals. Am ...

Great to hear it arrived all well Mr treefrog and BP's right on the 'look'. Not sure why your's does'nt have a serial number as mine's in the casting by the Middlehurst & Sons cast. As for the colours; Am not 100% sure but Aussie slots were generally pale blue & grey. Still, gorgeous piece i...
