Status: Sold

1920's-30's Watling Manufacturing Co - 1 penny (1 cent) slot machine. Comes with key. Twin jackpot game that gave gumballs at one time. This may have been used as a trade stimulator. Unknown if it can still give gum, as it's missing a piece of glass and the other glass panel is crackled. Unsure if machine is complete, though it seems to be. The machine has a wooden base, wood sides, cast iron back, approx 23"H x 15.5"W x 15"D - The machine collects pennies, seems to be entertaining with each lever pull. Not sure if it pays out because it's taken a Lot of my pennies, and hasn't given me one red cent in return! Poking fun, the machine hasn't been fully tested for rewards as of yet. The "sayings" on the 3 fruit spinners (reels) also "tells fortunes" though some will make you gasp LoL. There's a large label with photos on the inside of back cover. Age appropriate wear. Machine does come with some coins lined up and in till box. ~Az
