THE COIN SLOT
NOVEMBER
1974
Coin Slot Magazine - #003 - 1974 - November [International Arcade Museum]
One of the aims we have in publishing The Coin Slot
is to alert you to individuals or companies that we per
sonally have had good experiences and pleasant dealings
with. Of the following, only two are subscribers, and
none have any idea that we are going to mention their
namesin an article. Their addresses follow this editor
ial.
For any part, or arcade machine itself, Mike Munves
Corp. has it. Their warehouse has three floors of what
seems to be every type of coin-op machine ever made.
Theyfve been in business since 1912, and seem to have
atleast two of everything made since then. Their parts
department is limitless. The only thing that they donft
handle is slots and gambling equipment. But they do
have huge amounts of pin machines, mutoscopes, base
ball games, gum and card vendors, etc. They also have
a number of Wurlitizer juke boxes, including the old wood
en ones. If you take a trip to Munves, they will let you
roam around their three floors unmolested, so that you
may search forMgemsf? without any pressure. One thing
you should know—when you go there, wear your old clo
thes; their antique machines have accumulated quite a bit
of modern dirt.
Myron Sugarman of Pan-American Amusements, in
New Jersey, has what is probably the biggest selection
of rebuilt digger machines in the world! They are all in
as new condition, and look just terrific.
In addition to
the diggers Pan-Am carries just about every other type
of coin-op device made, from antiques to the new video
ping-pong machines. Besides the N. J. showroom, they
also have some equipment on display in Maryland. On
request Mr. Sugariman will send you his printed list of
several hundred machines for sale. The list has every
machine priced, so one can get an idea of where the cur
rent market is on these items. Myron Sugarman is very
pleasant to deal with, and the prices at Pan-Am are very
fair.

If you need any cheap jewelery ("slum", as it is called
in the carnival trade), Samuel Pockar is the man to call
on. He has been serving carnivals and fairs since 1919,
and can supply a limitless variety of stuff to fill digger
machines and so forth. He has items that sell for as low as
3 cents each, and as high as $4.50 each. His nicely il
lustrated 32 page catalogue is free for the asking.
