AN INSTANT SUCCESS!
TAKING IN AS H IG H AS 231 PENNIES A DAY
SERVES A D EFIN ITE
PURPOSE
As practically every eating
establishment, cocktail bar,
beer parlor, etc., is now using
a Paper Napkin container of
some sort or another, they are
eager to dispose of their pres­
ent n o n -p ro fit container, and
permit installation of the
S P IN -IT , because SP IN -IT
not only has a napkin contain­
er on both sides, but sells nuts
at a big profit, and also has a
spinning-reel race horse game
permitting patrons to play
high and low score— thus af­
fording the location a nice
percentage of profit for the
space formerly used for their
old-style napkin holder.
One of the S P IN -IT machines on location in a cocktail bar
in Los Angeles took in 231 pennies in a day, using less than
a pound of peanuts, and besides the owner of the location
stated his receipts were increased materially for the reason
customers were playing high and low score for the drinks.
Just think of the big profits on 50 or 100 of these SP IN -IT
machines!
SEPARATE PULL-SLIDE SAVES W ASTING PEANUTS
Peanuts are not wasted in SP IN -IT . They are available for
every penny if desired, but when patrons are playing high
and low score it is only occasionally that they pull out the
separate peanut slide. Place two or three S P IN -IT machines
on the bar to start, and if the business warrants add more
machines as you desire. No screws to mar counters. S P IN -IT
is equipped with four sturdy vaccuum feet.
BRIEF SPECIFICATIONS
Finished in beautiful, smooth baked enamel, easy to keep
clean. Has gleaming chrome plated trimmings, Chicago
lock, simplified coin mechanism. Size of base, about 6 ^ x 5 ".
Height 9". Holds ample napkin supply. Nut capacity about
i l/ i lbs. Adjustable portions. Has lasting popularity with
locations because of the game feature, and the fact that loca­
tion must have some sort of napkin container for patrons.
