Antique Watling 50c Rol-A-Top Slot Machine Survivor Vintage Casino Gambling
Offering for sale this guaranteed original, complete and working Watling Rol A Top slot machine. This is a VERY scarce and desirable specimen for several reasons. The machine is ALL ORIGINAL AND UNRESTORED. A true SURVIVOR from an East Coast estate. The machine is an original 50c - - yes, HALF DOLLAR - denomination! It's no wonder the machine is in such fine condition - - it likely didn't see the kind of use a 5c or 10c slot machine would have seen. Design-wise, this is a classic Rol a Top. The top casting features a. Horn of plenty that has coins cascading out. The lower casting features a twin jackpot. This was designed so that there would always be a jackpot of coins in view to entice a patron to want to play the machine. The payouts alternate between the left and right jackpot automatically. The double jackpot is all original and complete and working.
This machine is stamped into the wood case and written into the original paper label with the serial number of 93,625. Per the Watling reference book this dates the machine to around 1940.
This is a very nice machine that presents very well and plays perfectly. The mechanism is all original and is in excellent condition. The mechanism was recently lubricated (as was the jackpot) - and it is in perfect playing condition. The machine has its original reel strips. There are some scratches and a spot of old tape on the last reel (right) - but nothing too distracting.
The award card has age toning as well but it does not prevent you from reading the payout information. The machine has an original cash box and original Watling metal back door with original lock and Yale key. The machine is in superb working condition please view all photos and watch the youtube video to see it in action.
Review my recent feedback for similar vintage coin op machines It is overwhelmingly positive. Have a look at my other auctions there are several nice examples of vending machines, trade stimulators and other penny arcade coin op machines now and coming over the next several weeks.
