Antique Jennings 5 Cent Quality Mint slot machine 4 column 1930

Here is a 1930's Jennings 5 Cent Antique Quality Mint 4 Column Slot Machine with stand. All original, never been painted. Beautiful Quarter Sawed Oak Cabinet. America was facing a crime wave and law enforcement were cracking down on slot machine gambling.

Most companies went to some extreme to indicate they were not gambling slot machines. They even put Fortune Reel strips as a Fortune Teller machine, Not a gambling device. Mills and Jennings came up with what was called the "Future Pays" there is a small window that indicates what you won. However, it did not pay you until the next pull of the arm/handle. Each column had a push button that released a packet of mints with each play.

After tasting one of the mints that were almost all pure chalk, most people left them in the machine after that. You had to give them credit back then. Their enginuity to get by the gambling laws. This was another trade that we took in for a newer Double Diamond Slot Machine. You will see on each machine we list has a custom made.

Several years ago we contracted with an Amish Family in Millersburg, Ohio to custom make 75 stands for us. Some are made of Cherry, Oak, Walnut, Hard Maple and Tiger Oak.

As you will see we kept the most unique ones for our home. From members residing in any of these states will be cancelled.
