Dear Ed;
Got your note and the question about reel stripsfor your 1936
Mills CHERR Y BELL (It isn't the BLA CK CHERRY; that's a
1945-1948 machine that looks considerably different. You can
see them in the "100 Most Collectible Slot Machines" books.
The Mills CHERRY BELL is on page 88 of volume I and the
Mills BLACK CHERRY is on page 123 of volume 2).
Coin Slot advertisers Rick Frink, Jay Mihelich and Dave
Evans have all reproduced reel strips that would fit your
machine, as standard reels. Maybe they'll go along with a special
order. Here's hoping someone reads your letter in The Coin Slot
and gets back to you about it.

Dear Frank;
Shades of the past . . . good to hear from you.
You're in a select group, having received The Coin Slot since
issue No. I. About 150 people started out that way, so you've
seen it grow from ditto, to planograph to seperate cover and
professional printing to a larger size and now to the full
magazine size. It's been exciting for us, too, and we thank you
for your comments. Hang on. We 've got more surprises coming.
The guy that did that great restoration of the Superior
CIGARETTE GUM VENDER in the volume 1 issue of "100
Most Collectible Trade Stimulators", page 84 (we can say
"volume I now because volume 2 is well on its way to printing
and should be out in the fall) is none other than Dave Evans of
Cincinnati, a steamboat ride away. Dave may or may not have
reprinted the reward card, but if he didn't chances are that Bill
Whelan did. Both are The Coin Slot advertisers.
Asfor that fantastic baseball game WORLD'S CHA MP/ON
ELECTRIC BASEBALL, can't help you there. But it hasa Peo
WHIRLWIND look, sd we'd probably date it as a copy from
around 1933. Maybe a Coin Slot Reader Knows.
