It is all here! The complete and colorful story of coin-operated chance machines from the time they first became prevalent in the early 1890's up to the coin gaming found in todays casino's. Included in the exciting history of this major industry are the pioneers, inventors, manufacturers, and operators. There is also over 400 photographs, mostly in full color, of slot machines of every imaginable genre. The slot's destiny rose and fell with the changing moods of the nation. The Roaring Twenties brought the notorious speakeasys, a logical home for the ubiquitous slots, while the Depression years of the 1930's saw record productions and the most beautiful and brilliant machines ever designed, now highly collectable. The Golden Age of slots ended in 1950 with the passing of far-reaching federal legislation confining their use. But the growth of casinos in Nevada and Atlantic City, plus recent legalization in more states, has resulted in a resurgence of the slot machine. Slots, highly regarded collectables, are not only a good investment, but are fun to play. Every important slot manufactured during the first 100 years is carefully represented both in text and by more than 600 photographs and newspaper articles, all serving to chronicle this colorful segment of Americana. 630 photographs, 504 in full color Copyright 1983, 1989, 1991, 1994, 1997, 1999, 2002  Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas.

Ron Heiligenstein, collector, writer and lecturer, this carefully documented reference book is considered to be the definitive text on the subject of regimental beer steins. This is the first comprehensive book in over eighteen years exclusively devoted to the subject of regimental beer steins and the period when they were produced.

"When Royal Doulton turned my turned my two-dimensional world back into three-dimension reality, it was so exciting to see the real rounded models of the mice taking shape. When they were finally coloured and fired, you could hold them in your hand and play with them (if you were careful).
