Mills Vest Pocket Vintage Antique Nickel Slot Machine

This Mills Vest Pocket vintage antique slot machine appears complete. It accepts nickels and plays well; the first reel doesn't seem to spin as long as it should. The reel strips are complete but oily.

The clock/governor works smoothly as it allows all four clicks to take place. The flip-over door that exposes the reels works well as does the tip-up door that opens to retrieve winnings. All 4 suction cup feet are in place. This slot has original paint that will clean up well.

Someone stuck a piece of tape on top for whatever reason. The lock is old aftermarket in this machine a long time. The key inserts into the lock easily but doesn't turn: I'm afraid of breaking it should I force it. When I got this slot many years ago the lock and key worked easily. I've not looked at it for 30 years or so until this morning.
