CAILLE “OUR BABY” COLOR WHEEL GAMBLING MACHINE. A desirable early gambling device with a fanciful coin head allowing one to play up to five coins and yet if all slots are played you will always be a winner. Variable odds correspond with the different colors and their prospective payouts, hence red or black have a 2 to 1 payout with a multitude of red or black colors on the wheel, whereas the blue “our baby” only has 2 spots and thus the highest payout of 20 to 1. A cherry cabinet with rope twist corner columns, rope beading surrounding the dial, inset smaller rope twist framing the front and leaf applique motifs further adorning the facade. Perhaps this is one of the most appealing of the countertop one wheel gambling machines ever manufactured by Mills, Caille, Watling, etc! SIZE: 21-1/2″ w x 11-1/2″ d x 29″ t. CONDITION: Color wheel appears to be of modern replacement, coin head, although iron, is remanufactured, otherwise machine appears to be original and intact. 1-8250 JL (6,000-8,000)
