RARE CAILLE QUINTETTE. Highly desirable and seldom found gambling machine made by the famed Caille brothers of Detroit, Michigan. Anywhere from one to five players could participate each having a separate “hand”. Encased within an oak cabinet with cast iron trims and set upon a cast iron pedestal base. This particular machine has been in a private collection for over twenty years and has just come fresh to the market! The original wood finish is intact but the front and sides have been cleaned displacing some of the original oak patina. The cast iron castings have been replated over twenty years ago and are original castings to this machine. The playing cards are marked Caille and are in spectacular original condition. Perhaps one of the greatest gambling poker machines ever made!! SIZE: Approximately 6’. CONDITION: Original oak finish, replated castings, new “marbleizing” to base. Award card displayed on front appears to be quality replica.
