I think I recall seeing one of the Acme Roulette machines in a small TX town off I-20. It was down in a basement area with a bunch of other stuff - probably still there, but it was 6+ years ago. May have to check it out this coming summer when I go back to visit family.

Well, I thought I had bought a couple of real nice machines at a antique show the other day for $50 each...made the guy a deal for $100 to take both of them from him.  I had to move fast because I spotted a couple of known collectors in the same area of where these were. 

The machines were a really cool counter top coin-op nut machine perfect shape - never seen one like it before and the other was a small old round tub style coke machine - not sure of the model number it was.   

Those collectors found out what I had got them for and they were pretty furious that they didn't move in quicker.  They were awesome machines.

And then I woke up.....it was a dream I had last night!  What a disappointment!   Thought I had scored a great find.   I have to quit reading these posts before I go to bed!!   oh

Larry that roulette machine is awesome, that too was a heavy SOB.  Good thing we used the garbage can trick otherwise it could have ended up bad.
