Hi All,

Here are some photos of the Chicagoland Antique show I go to twice a year. I remembered to bring my camera this time so I snapped a few so you can all get a taste of the show.
We didn't spend much, we just got a bunch of parts for some machines we have for restoring.

There was only one pachinko in the entire show. In the past, There have been lots more, along with pachislos.

What is the machine to the left of the Pachinko picture? It looks really interesting.

The tall games in the wood cabinets really are beautiful! It looks like a lot of fun!

Thanks for the pics!

The smaller Mills machine that is next to the pachinko pic is basically a table top version of the large Uprights that are pictured. The wheel in front spins, and betting can be done with multiple coins. That type of slot machine and the uprights are the predisessors to the three wheeled slots we see today.
Those uprights go for about $30,000. Kind of out of my budget.

Looks like a show I'd like to see first hand some time!

That pachinko:
