The O F F IC IA L is b u ilt as the official race horse game should be: W ith o u t
a flaw .
From its sure-working coin chute to its p ick-p ro o f lo ck, it is perfect.
Just to get an ,'idea of how thoughtfully the O F F IC IA L SWEEPSTAKES is
b u ilt for y o u , check over these points:
FOR C O U N T E R O R S T A N D S !
To begin, the O F F IC IA L SW EEPSTAKES is a handy size: 12 inches high,
1 5 inches w id e , and 1 3 inches from front to back. To you this means you can
very e a sily p lace it on a counter. A n d for this purpose, it comes equ ip pe d
with vacuum cup feet. O r , if you want, you can p la ce it on a so lid W o o d
o , Steel Stand.

PLAY
The O F F IC IA L suits a ll the players because it takes pennies, nickels, dimes,
o f quartets.
N O
G U E S S -W O R K
Fool-Proof Indicator and Tell-Tale "Balance"
The O F F IC IA L has an exclusive in d ica to r. The p la y e r picks his horse by
number and sets the in d ic a to r a cco rd in g ly.
His coin is then registered in the back of the machine under the corresponding
number. O n c e the race starts a special lo ckin g device makes it impossible
for the player to change his choice.
E verything shows up through the Register W in d o w in the back. Thus, the man
behind the counter can a lw a ys see (1 ) what horse was p icked and (2 ) what
coin was p la y e d .
Then, to o , the O F F IC IA L SWEEPSTAKES has a d e lic a te ly balanced
in d ic a to r. It is as sensitive as the m agnetic needle o f a compass. The slightest
attem pr at tiltin g or ja rrin g tilts the ‘ ‘B alance’ ’ and tells.
S O L ID — N O T H IN G T O B R E A K
In the O F F IC IA L you have a gam e w ith nothing to break. Every part is
p erfectly finished and assembled.
The glass, for exa m p le , is double-strenath and set into the ca b in e t as s o lid ly
as sheets of steel. You can, therefore, b be
e sure your games w ill reach you in
perfect co n d itio n and on time.

STAKES. N o t o n ly does it have a co lo rfu l a nd life -lik e race tra ck and
grounds but its cabinet is W alnut-finished a nd h ig h ly polished. A d d to this
