A little history about this machine. Back in the day slot machines where considered a gambling device and were not legal in many states. So, Mills came up with a way to get around the gambling laws with this type of machine. Here's how the future pay worked, when you hit a pay out it would register the amount won in the little window at the top of the machine and on the next play you would receive that amount. Also with skill stop on the machine it made a game of skill thus not a game of chance. So that's how they got around the gambling laws back then, anyway for a little while.
