1931 Watling Torch Front 5 cent. Restored, "polished not plated" all original. two plays for a nickel. working twin Jackpots and mint vendor. Plays and pays as it should.
A little history about the 2 pull Watling. The 2 pull for a nickel Watling Blue Seal were found and known long before the 2 pull for a quarter Rol-A-Top were discovered. This machine was made by Watling and not by an operator like many think. The reason for the 2 pull was entice player's during the depression. There is a picture of one that appeared in the 1981 Wallace/Homes stead price guide and also in the Collector's Treasury of Antique Slot Machines. This machine was available in 1 cent to 25 cent, The nickel is the only one I have ever seen in 40 years of dealing in slot machines. The last picture here show's the machine the way we received it. "Before and after"
