1930's "Climax" Allwin on ebay - Dutch or German Version??

[JACKSJE4]

Here is an Allwin in great condition with no reserve. The wording on the playfield appears to be written in Dutch (according to the seller). I think it could be German built, as there was an Allwin manufacturer in Germany for many years during the period this one was made. Despite his manufacture date claim, I suspect this machine was built in the late 1930's based on the hardware used on the front. (I invested many hours last weekend researching these critters after my last Allwin arrived damaged and needed repairs and replacement parts!)

Anyhow, I have no plans to hoarde this one for myself, so I will let another PT member bid on it (Chewy?)

Good Luck!

thanks for the heads up. I will bid on this one and see.

some day I want to get an allwin and an arepachi...

in the meantime, however, I have several pachi's waiting for my attention and a pinball...

Good luck! I hope you get it.

Ik leer nederlands, so I agree the writing is Dutch.

Sold for $535 USD! Did anyone here win it?

That's a really bad Dutch translation on that machine! My God!
