READ THIS LETTER
FROM AN OPERATOR!*
“Have made with my first JU M B O in that one location
over $2,000.00. This first JU M B O has made my success
—it has paid all debts and mortgages I had previously.”
This letter, from a Louisiana operator, is
more dramatic, more packed with “human
interest” than most letters we receive. But
otherwise it is not unusual. Dozens of
similar letters come to Bally every week.
Nor is JUMBO unusual in its most incredi­
ble earning power. JUMBO has been—
and still is— a Home Builder, a Car-Buyer,
a Debt-Exterminator, a Bank-Book-Fat-
tener. But so, too, are all Bally games.
Check them off on your fingers— Ace, Pros­
pector, Jumbo, Bally Derby, Peerless, Bally
Bonus! Sensation after sensation—every
one a success—every one a phenomenal
money maker for operators.
