Riviara Cashcendo 1968/75 |
I don't know much about these, but there are many variations using the same cabinet and mechanism. I think this model was originally made in 1968 and converted in 1975. I bought both these in good condition, but the chrome has been enameled. Fully mechanical. Electric for lights only. £495 | 2p/£1.00 | |||

Bryans Elevensies 1954 |
One of many games made by the Bryans Works, which was first made in 1955. Originally 1d, now on 2p. The Bryans works kept production of many of their games going right up to November 2000 when the factory was destroyed by fire. Many collectors would have queued to buy new machines had any one realised this was possible. Elevenses was the biggest-selling Allwin of during their time. No longer available. | 2p/4p or 12p | |||

Brenco Silver Chest 1972 |
One of my favorites found in British Rail buffets around the early seventies. Well made electro-mechanical game converted to take the new 10p coin. The 10p jackpot was all that was legally allowed at the time. £250 | 2p/10p | |||

Bally/Summit Bars and Sevens 1972/82 |
This Machine is a converted Bally from the 70s'. Starting life as a Casino machine in Nevada, it was bought by Summit and converted in 1982 to a more reliable Bars and Sevens. The mechanical reel unit was replaced with a microprocessor controlled reel and payout unit then sold to a major casino. Single or multi coin play. Wins over 1000 coins paid by hand After video poker became all the rage, it was then sold to an operator in Barbados before being moved on to Ireland set 2p play and operated there. From here it found its way to a flat in London, sold on eBay to finally end up at Shanklin on the Isle of Wight. Does not run reliably, so £200 | 2p/£20.00 | |||

Ace Casino Royale 1966 |
An old 6d jackpot machine. The 320 coin jackpot would have yielded £8.00 in 6d coins. The hold feature, which games followed at the time was available every spin, except after using a hold the previous game or after a win. This explains the lack of a "Hold Now" panel. As I remember, most players were aware of this and didn't cause the confusion it does today. Also accepted 1/-, 2/- and 2/6 coins. Now on 1p play. No longer available. | 1p/£3.20 | |||

Bell Fruit Lucky Twos 1973 |
Another massive 10p jackpot game from the early 70s. Originally bought and operated by "Top Twenty Phonograph and Automatic Machine Co. Ltd." later renamed "Phonomatics" which operated from Havant. They had most of the brewery contracts in the grater Portsmouth area through the 70s and 80s. A very common game at the time. No longer available. | 2p/10p | |||
![]() |
Brenco Wheel of Fortune |
Previously on old penny made in the mid 60s'. Converted to new penny in 71. Operated in Ireland before returning to England. Now running on 2p to give it a more authentic feel. No longer available. | 2p/20p | |||

Bell Fruit Nudge Gambler 1979 |
Classic Bell Fruit game. Original payout structure except the removal of the 10p tokens. Now accepts the new 5p, 10p and 50p coins. Cost to buy when new, £615 from Ruffler and Deith. No longer available. | 5p/£1.00 | |||

Bell Fruit Ten Up 1980 |

Bally Las Vegas 1974 |
From the Bob Thompson auction. Still available to buy new in 1976 for £475 Three chips any where in view activates the chip feature. The player flicks the plastic chip into a mini bagatelle and can win 4p or 20p depending where it lands. Originally 5p play, but converted to 2p as no one seems to like 5p games. £650 | 2p/20p | |||

Brenco Copper Prince 1972 |
"Two plays for 1p" I hear them say, well not quite. After inserting your 1p the reels spin and all stop together. If you win, the game pays out and the game ends. If you don't achieve a wining line, you have a few seconds to hold any reels, before the reels automatically spin again. You then either get a wining line or not. Insert another 1p coin and the cycle starts again. A very popular game. No longer available. | 1p/10p | |||

Bally Big Barrel. Model 1012. 1974 |
One of my favourites. A rare floor standing Bally game. The 20p coin win on the feature was originally a 25p token which you could replay for 13 credits. No longer available. | 2p/20p | |||
![]() |
Bally Stars and Stripes 1976 |
A Bally conversion from another probably better game. Only a few symbols making the game more like a Bar-X machine. £420 | 2p/50p | |||
![]() |
Bally Vegas 1974 |
From the Bob Thompson auction. This 3 coin multiplier game allows you to stake 1-3 coins. 600 coin jackpot when playing 3 coins. £550 | 2p-6p/£12 | |||

Wondermatics Win and Place 1954 |
Apparently Wondermatics was owned and run by two gay friends. With this in mind a closer look at the companies logo on the machine was not quite what you would expect to find on games produced in the 50s. A popular game from my youth with a 6d payout when suitably primed by previous players. Was 1d now working on 2p. £650 | 2p/12p | |||
![]() |
Auto Fruit | Bet on one or more fruit symbols. The lights then cycle between them all. If you placed a bet on the winning fruit, you are paid that amount. There are loose lights that can only light on a game where bets were placed. Adjustable. Converted for 2p play. £650 | 1d-1/- 2p/24p | |||

Games Inc. King Tap. 1970 You Tube Video. |
Uses projection units instead of reels. Insert 1p and move paddle to "spin reels". Hold any desired symbols and move paddle to "spin again". Wins lines obtained during first "spin" should be held to pay out at end of second "spin". Plays exactly the same as "Miss new penny", a game I remember from the first year of decimalisation. No longer available. | 1p/10p | |||

Bally Mustang. Model 903. 1970 | Sought after three reel game made for the American market with holds and a 200 coin jackpot. No top glass when I rescued this from the Bob Thompson auction, so currently has a print I had made. Top glass wanted if any one has one to spare. Has a now illegal feature (UK) where three horseshoes light favorable feature for next 10 games. £695 | 2p/£4 | |||

Bally Medalist. Model 1081. 1975 | A popular and rare 5 reel game made for the American market. Actually three 3 reel games in one. Play one coin for reels 1 to 3, two coins for reels 1-3 and 2-4 and three coins to play reels 1-3, 2-4 and 3-5. Confused yet? So playing 3 coins getting first 3 cherries would pay 17 coins. 10 for first game, 5 for second game and 2 for third game. Lots of different pay outs with a very complicated win detection circuit. Had one diode short circuit when I bought it which with out the schematic would have been very hard to find. Play 3 coins and win £200. Odds 3,200,000 to 1 Paid by hand. £950 | 2p-6p/£200 | |||

Cromptons Tooty Fruity, Silver Award. | Light the 4 "Silver Award" lamps on the bottom row for bells and a 50p coin. From Bournemouth seafront arcade. No longer available. | 2p/50p | |||
