St. Louis, Missouri
According to B. A, Withey of Chi­
cago, manufacturer of the “King
Six, Jr.,” dice game, the coin ma­
chine industry is on the threshhold
of one of its most prosperous years.
He bases his opinion on the fact that
reports reaching his organization
from operators throughout the coun­
try indicate that economic conditions
are rapidly improving and that public
interest in all types of recreation is
increasing.
“Although we were more than
satisfied with the trade’s acceptance
of ‘King Six, Jr.’ when it was in­
troduced a few months ago,” Mr.
Withey declared, “we are really sur­
prised at the sharp rise in demand
for our machine during the last sev­
eral weeks. This leads us to believe
that operators who had refrained
from buying during the summer
months are commencing to add new
machines to their routes. 1936 should
be a “record breaker’ for sales in
every branch of the industry,” he
added.
Production schedules at the Withey
plant on “King Six, Jr.” have re­
cently been increased, and it is said
that shipments are being made to a
number of foreign countries.

Oregon Ops Form
New Association
Ad-Lee Announces
Two New Ones
The Oregon Skill Game Operators'
Association has been recently or­
ganized, according to information just
received by the National Association
of Coin-Operated Machine Manu­
facturers.
Officers were elected on November
7 as follows: President, Frank A.
Koehler; Vice-President, Ace Ams-
berg; Secretary, Harold Hansen;
Treasurer, Don Armitage; Directors,
Bob Allen, E. M. Busch and Lou
Dunas.
President Koehl er , in wr i t i n g
NACOMM his thanks for assisting
in the organization, states that he
believes the operators of Oregon now
realize the importance and necessity
of a well organized association, and
asks that any operators in the State
who have not already received notice
of this new Association get in touch
with him at once at 1147A N.E. 31st
Avenue, Portland, Oregon.
Production and sales activity at the
Ad-Lee Company, pioneer coin ma­
chine manufacturers, has reached a
peak which rivals the “good old
days” according to Mr. Lee Felsen-
thal, that genial and kindly gentleman
who has devoted the past forty years
to vending machines and kindred
lines. The reason lies in steadily-
climbing sales of the X-Cavator,
digger-type machine, and their de­
luxe four-column bulk vending ma­
chine, along with the immediate
reaction which followed recent an­
nouncements of their new “Leap
Frog” dice machine and the “Duette”
two-column bulk merchandiser.

duce reasonable sales quotas, write for our proposi­
tion.
Turkey Salesboards
Popular Now
Salesboard operators are finding it
profitable at this season of the year
to distribute candy and turkey push-
cards along their routes.
The small turkey push-card usually
takes in approximately $20.00 and
awards one turkey as a grand prize
and several smaller birds as consola­
tion prizes. The large push-card,
1000 holes, takes in $50.00 and awards
a turkey and a number of smaller
prizes in cash, trade or cigarettes.
Often operators will arrange a direct
tie-up with a local butcher and then
award the poultry winners with
tickets which are redeemable at “so-
and-so's” market.
The candy push-card usually con­
sists of 200-600 holes and makes a
liberal pay-out of one, two, three
and five pound boxes of chocolates.
If the candy boxes are stacked around
the board, an attractive eye-appealing
display is created.
Turkey and candy push-cards have
at least one important point in their
favor. They are often tolerated in
locations where the conventional
salesboard is not.
Trade and cash boards are good
all year around. But the operator
who adds a few turkey and candy
push-cards to his route during the
Holiday season is able to add just
that much more to his profits.
In “Leap Frog” the firm presents
an original and startling departure
from other counter dice machines. It
is electrically operated and a touch
of the button catapults the dice onto
the board from a concealed compart­
ment. Insertion of a coin causes the
dice to again disappear until the
button is touched for the next play.
Six coins can be played at one time,
ranging from pennies to quarters,
and this is a second remarkable fea­
ture of the machine.
“ Duette” is an attractive counter
size vending machine holding two
columns of bulk merchandise. The
mechanism is new and especially
adapted for handling odd shaped
items. Simplicity of servicing and
collecting from the machine are among
its many features.
