The king of the sports coin-ops, this wonderful one-armed bandit is ten times rarrer than the more common Mills version. Wonderful enamel playing field baseball scene at top in fullest color is as nice as we have seen (conservatively EX-MT). This nickel slot machine features an alluring baseball theme and a coveted "twin jackpot". This fanciful machine is housed in luxurious country oak in original finish. Measures a stately 24" tall and is 14" wide and deep. The machine works perfectly and is all-original (right down to the finish) except for a small piece of metal on the top and the glass. One of the classic pieces of crossover sports memorabilia, this is quite ppossibly the finest slot machine we have offered in terms of rarity and condition.
