For sale here are the C&A Slot Restorations archival prints you have been waiting for! Some of these images you will find elsewhere but NEVER have all of these images been offered in one place and never of this quality. When you order a C&A Slot Restorations archival print you get a quality photographic darkroom print, not an inkjet reproduction like others give you. These photographic prints are created in a darkroom on Fuji Chrystal Archive photographic paper and are guaranteed to last without any color shift or fading for over 60 years.

Any inkjet reproduction print you get elsewhere will fade and change color after a couple years, sometimes a couple months. Don’t be fooled by someone claiming to to have better prints.

TITLE: MACHINE FACTORY (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		1930's Slot Machine Factory parts and repair shop In the cubbies to the right are a Caille Silent Sphinx, Mills Skyscraper, Mills Romanhead, Watling Venders and Mills Bell Boy Slot Machines. In the cubbies to the left over the workbench a miriad of gears, springs, clocks and mech. parts. It almost looks like the C&A Slot Restorations repair shop.

		1930's Coin-op Showroom Most of the Coin-op games in this 1930's showroom are trade stimulators, however along the shelves to the right side are some small slot machines and in the foreground on the right side is a full size bell boy slot machine. This image is an extention of the machine factory image above. In the background you can see the cubbies of the above image.

On the Right side is the same bell boy machine and in the back are numerous trade stimulator and coin drop games.

TITLE: 1899 CAILLE MUSICAL PUCK (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		1899 Caille Musical Puck This is the precurser of the modern juke box and one of the very first musical slot cabinets. They were originally one cent machines and later converted to five cent and even twenty-five cent. They became very popular in the early 1900's but lost popularity by the 1920's. Today they are very rare even in this condition and very highly saught after by collectors.

TITLE: PLAYING MILLS CASTLEFRONT (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		1930's Outside Playing Mills Castefront After the 1929 Great depression began slot machines were everywhere in America. Owners would hope to make a nickel anyway they could. In many areas a couple couldn't walk down the street without seeing (and of course playing) the popular machines. They were huge money makers and very inexpensive for the local merchants to operate and maintain, therefore the local establishments would take thier chances leaving them unattended outside.

TITLE: EXTRORDINARES IN BAR (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		Extrordinares In Town Bar For decades to sit down with your drink in local establishments and play the slots was common throughout the US. There were bars like this littering the American landscape. Then the politicians got involved, prohibition changed things and this had to be done in the back rooms. This was still common but no longer in the front bar.....the machines and gambling was moved to secret underground rooms in the back of the bars and basements.

TITLE: WAR EAGLE (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		War Eagle On Wall After a long days work many factories & companies had a machine or two in locker rooms and waiting areas for employees. These machines were kept out of sight of police and law so as to not draw attention. Most small town and even large city municipalities during prohibition ignored the occasional machine of this type. The thought was as we have all heard 'out of sight, out of mind.' That is until Mabel Walker Willebrandt "The woman behind prohibition enforcement" found out.

TITLE: LINE TO PLAY MILLS & CAILLE (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		Line To Play a Mills & Caille Almost like a food line during the great depression people lined up at lunch time, after work and on weekends to play the slot machines. As you can see this became a family event for all ages. Gambling laws were not a factor then and the chance for a working family to put in a nickel and win a couple dollars (jackpot on many of these machines) was a big deal.

TITLE: NURSES PLAYING SLOTS (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		Nurses Play Slots After Work You can see in the background a Watling Roll-a-top and a Mills Extrordinare slot machine as two nurses getting off work relieve some stress at a Jennings slot machine hoping for a big payout.

TITLE: SHREADED CAILLE COLSOLE (hover over images to enlarge detail)
		After The Police Raid A Shreaded Console Is The Only Thing Standing Unfortunately this was all to common a scene during the later years of prohibition. The disaster in this room was probably some very profitable business where the women wrapped themseleves around any businessmen willing to gamble thier life savings away or just spend a night defying the law.
