Dear J.H.G.,
By now I hope everyone knows
my feelings on foreign machines. I
love them! I think they're attractive,
fun to play and inexpensive. You
are definitely on the right track Your
machines were probably made just
prior to World War II, but for more
definitive answers to your questions
you might try dropping a note to Nic
Costa in care of the magazine.
The CASTLE FRONT or SILENT
MYSTERY was also made by Mills
and was produced from 1937 to
1942. It, too, looks to be in excellent
original condition and worth $1,000
to $1,200. It sure is nice when the
coins pay for the machines.

I would like to know what you
know about these machines and,
more particulary, how many other
variations of this machine were made
and what they were. I think it would
be fun to collect the whole series. I
