There co m es n o w on the coin machine scene a
SuPerb new table. A table new in idea. New in design.
in mechanical make-up. And new in money­
making ability. It is a table that towers above every­
thing else ever beheld by human eyes. It is the best
^oney can buy.
^his table is a one-shot engineered by Rock-Ola. A
°n*'shot styled by masters. It is the most important
nev* table in the business today. Its appeal is so
P°w erful, so dynamic, that no shrewd operator will
dHow a single fact or detail to escape him.

magnificent features: multiple coin chute that

f'hat, gentlemen, is ALAM O. And A LAM O is this
c°untry*s new winner. The accepted favorite in every
v **rritory, in every state, everywhere.
l-AMO has captured the imagination of the Amer-
,can public. A LA M O 'S play-idea has the fascination
m^gic itself. Instead of the ordinary layout, the 5

pairs of pockets are arranged in one row across the
bottom of the field. The new 1
inch Cateline Ball
comes dodging down the field. As it rolls over each
switch the odds increase. From a dime up to ten dol­
lars. To win, the ball must go in a lighted pocket.
Each coin lights one pair of pockets. The chute takes
from one to five coins. The five coins light all the
pockets. That’s 25c a game instead of the usual
nickel. With these facts you can easily figure for
yourself the tremendous pro fit possibilities of ALAM O.
O f course, it’s all up to you. You can chase rainbows
or climb mountains. You can cross the ocean or fly
to the moon, if you like. That’s your affair. But you
won’t find anything that can touch ALAM O. Not
even if you turn the town upside down and inside out.
And that goes for all of them. Without exception!
A LAM O, gentlemen, is no ordinary table. Please
understand that. ALA M O is a true masterpiece. The
one-shot. So make no mistake. Waste no time.
A LAM O is too important a table. It means too much
to you. The stakes are the greatest in all coin machine
history. To act quickly is to act wisely. So determine
now to reach out for your share— to top the boys on
your home grounds.
$4 0 .0 0 a day is not hard to take. That’s $ 1 0 0 0 a
day on 25 ALAM OS! Better write, wire, phone, or
call at once. This is one case that calls for immediate
action!

You hear a lot about triumphs these days.
You read a lot of grand words in the adver­
tisements. W hat follows, however, is not an
attempt to reproduce the dictionary. It is
plainly and simply a statement of facts:
and separates the coins, assuring you of the correct
payout every time.
ALAMO’S 50 inch cabinet has the strength of
steel and iron. It actually is steel lined. The costliest,
strongest woods are used in its construction. The legs,
for example, are double-bolted. The design and
color are works of superb artistry. ALAMO’S cabinet
has all the flash and quality of a $500.00 table.
ALAMO gives you 101 other features. There are,
for example, its automatic change-over from bat­
teries to Rock-O-Pacs. Its changeable odds. Its super
tilting device which automatically rings a bell and
warns the location owner. Its in-a-drawer mechanism
with a special side door for inspection purposes.
And its built-in light panel.
ALAMO’S mechanism is a finished job. Tried,
tested, and proved. There are no if’s, and’s, or
maybe’s about it. ALAMO is scientifically built.
You can depend on it every day of the week, every
week of the month, and every month of the year.
ALAMO delivers all-year dependability.
Its multiple-escalator coin chute is the neatest
thing imaginable. The chute, which is rubber-tipped,
takes up to five coins at one time. Every coin shows!
The Rock-Ola Pay Unit has become recognized
as the finest there is. All the hocus-pocus has been
left out. It is 100% clog-proof. It’s impossible for
a coin to wedge or clog the chute. It is adjustable
and can be set to fast, slow, or medium speed. Its
coin detector spring is like a magic hand — it selects
The Mint Vendor can be put on or taken off in a
few minutes. It vends on money only, not checks.
What’s more, the Mint Vendor is positive in operation.
Example after example can be given. A LAM O
is a game of many money-producing features.
Space, however, does not permit a complete
listing. But you have enough here to recog­
nize a master job from coin chute to cash box
and back again. At $149.50, you are getting
a job that will pay for itself in 4 to 5 days.
You are getting the finest table of all time.
The boss of the lot. There is going to be a
steady, endless demand for ALAMOS. And
deliveries are bound to fall behind in a short
time. So better think fast and act fast. Step
up now and write your ticket for $ 4 0 .0 0 a
day profits!
The New Ticket Unit
ALAMO’S ticket unit is by far the best in the business. A full year ahead of present
day units. Its scissor-type knife will last the lifetime of the machine. There are no
replacements, no re-sharpenings, no extra labor. And that’s not all. The Rock-Ola
Ticket Unit is jam-proof. There is nothing to catch, bind, or clog the unit. Every ticket
comes out clean and quick, without hitch or halt. ALAMO can be had with or without
the ticket unit and is so equipped that any operator can install the ticket unit whenever
desired. The Rock-Ola Ticket Unit is the ticket unit for today’s operating conditions!
