What a deal :97- And needs care/restoration only $3k. :279- I think I saw this same machine awhile back. Looks like they have been trying to sell it for a while.     http://detroit.craigslist.org/

It might help to post the correct link. :88-

Personally, I wouldn't take a video Bertha, working or not, if he paid me to take it. :96-  What's the point if it doesn't have those giant reels? :30-

**RARE & HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE** 1950's & 60's era Bally Mfg's. infamous "Big Bertha" slot machine. This is a unique machine that could have been found in many Las Vegas casinos during it's time and was introduced as the power house of slot machines. This massive 7 foot tall mechanical wonder would make a great addition to any collection or as a conversational piece in any home or business, don't miss out on this extraordinary piece of gaming history!

The slot machine is in good working order, but with its age like any antique, it will need a small amount of care/restoration. Please refer to the pictures for cosmetic condition. I am asking for $3,000 or best offer...Don't let an opportunity like this go by!!

LOCAL PICK-UP PREFFERED

Like the one inside the door of the Golden Nugget in Vegas? To bad they never sell those, it could be one whole wall of the house

I think the Super Joker in its larger-than-life size would be enough to give me nightmares:
