Est. $5,000-$6,000 1978 Bally Five Cent 1 Line/3 Column Slot Machine Model 1091-2 Measures approx. 57"H x 25.5"W x 20"D. These machines are slowly disappearing from the collecting scene, as many of these machines have been simply cannibalized to act as parts sources for other working machines. These vintage machines are becoming harder and harder to come by, and as the years go by, these machines will increase in value for the collector. This slot machine is in wonderful condition, however we do not have its key. Bally's slot machines dominated the electromechanical scene of the 1960's and 1970's, and they were called the "trendsetters", and the masters of gaming technology. The casinos in the United States saw innovation after innovation. Bally machines boasted larger newly-styled hoppers, multi-line and multi-coin plays and gigantic jackpots. The other slot manufacturers (Jennings, Mills, etc.) could not keep up with all of the exciting trends that the Bally engineers were coming up with.
