Title: Hello (new person here)...
Post by: Carne_Asada_Guy on March 06, 2012, 07:02:48 PM
Hi... i'm new to the forum here... looks like a nice place.

I'm in las vegas (not just visiting) but i live here.  I've purchased a Bally
Electromechanical.  Although, i dont know for CERTAIN if it's a Bally -- it
just looks like one.

I have lots of questions, etc, etc... i'll post a few pictures as i go.  Thank you
in advance!!!

My first question is... does anyone know the model # of my machine?  I think
you can post 2 photos (max)... so maybe i'll string out the photos.

Welcolme.  I am no expert but hate to see a post go unanswered with so many people looking at it.  I would say that you definately have a bally, pre 1890 machine in the Continental family.  You cut off ther very top of the feature glass in your pic.  That may have provided more clues.  Best of luck.

There should be a metal plate on the right side of the cabinet with the serial #, model #, and the date of manufacture (the date will be stamped into the metal, usually at the top of the plate). I have 2 Giant Jackpots that are both model SC891, but that does not guarantee yours is. I'm getting my info off of my inventory list, so I cannot verify they are identical to your machine.
