Mills “one-armed bandits” are American classics, though for many back in the ‘30s and ‘40s they were sometimes cold steel heartbreakers. This antique dime slot model has a red die cast steel face that was painted then oven baked and a second enamel coat applied. Sides and base made of walnut. One can see the dimes line up and move through the coin window and then under the front glass jackpot chamber -- with a bit of luck, that is. “Mills” is engraved near the top aside a panel reading “Special Award, 7-7-7, 200 Coins” As an aside, this machine is also legal in most states because it is over 25 years old. In EX-MT condition and complete with a mechanical pull arm topped by the characteristic red knob..Not Baseball, but still great. From the Charlie sheen collection
