looking for revenge? Pagan worshippers in coin-
op? Perhaps you have an idea of your own. We can
never know the real reason, of course, but I like to
think that these little devils were left as a type of
time capsule for future generations. They are a way
of saying to us, "Hi! We were here in 1913 making
these games for a living but we also like to have a
little bit of fun too, just like you do. We hope you
find these four devils to be ambassadors of good
will from our generation to yours, whenever that
may be. Enjoy them and remember us kindly." With
regret, I resealed the four in their new raiment. I
hope that their future liberators will get the same
pleasure that they afforded me.
day. And I still have to tell you about the fabulous
British fortune tellers too. Stay tuned.
I would be remiss if I did not mention three British
chaps who went well out of their way to help me
with this project. Without the kind assistance of
Tony Atkins, Brian Bates and Steve Hunt, you
would be reading a completely different story right
now! And Dearly Beloved would be wagging her
finger under my nose! Thanks, guys!
As always, I love to hear from other collectors of
these wonderful British games. Fell free to call me
at (952) 891-2312 or drop me a line at jb4@char-
ter.net. Until next time, have a devil of a good time
collecting! Cheers!
And so ends the tale of Domino and the Devils. As
an aside, shortly after getting "Domino, Model 4", I
was able to find and purchase another Handan-Ni
game called "Multi ball". The purchase of that game
led to the Mother lode of British games for sale, the
"Glenn Collection" ..... But that's a story for another
P.S. For those few readers who truly follow my
ramblings and keep all the loose ends in mind, I will
admit that I took the seller's advice to heart: I did
not refinish the case!
2004 C.O.C.A. Calendar
Nl~ll'S l~I.JlSII
NOT ONCE, NOT TWICE, BUT THREE TIMES!
We have received a few pictures for the
2004 C.O.C.A. calendar but not enough for
a complete calendar. For those who have
sent numerous pictures, Thanks, but we use
no more than one photo from each collec-
tor.
Yes, you guessed it! C.O.C.A. members
are all invited back to Jasper Sanfilippo's
for Friday nights meeting. If you have
been there already, then nothing more
needs to be said. If you havent, then
cancel all other plans and make it a
priority to attend.
Photos may be submitted by August 1st.
If we don't have enough photos by then,
the C.O.C.A. calendar will be history.
No where else will you see more music
machines, arcade pieces and coin op.
Send photos to:
Jack Freund, P.O. Box 4, Springfield, WI 53176,
email: jbgum@msn.com
Oh, did I mention a full size carousel and
locomotive all under one roof? More
precise info will be in the next C.O.C.A.
issue!
