Bob, try Roger at the Sugar Shack - http://ww.coinslots.com

I've read his  postings at another site, sounds like he could idntify it for you.

It looks cool, but I have no idea of value or era

It's a Buckley console spinner type slot machine.  Consoles are not worth much in comparison to other slots.  Serious slot collectors don't want anything to do with them.  They don't like the space they take up and they don't like them because they are electric.  Also, the glass is usually cracked or peeling.  Yours looks like it's in good shape.  I'd say it's worth $500.00.

I have two Evan's spinners myself.  I really like them.

If you change your mind, here are some manuals from various machines, Buckley, Bally, Evans, etc.
