Your machine isn't really a It machine, but the American
penny fits the slot and escalator originally builtfor the British
coinage. The GOVERNOR hasn't been described in the "100

That Bell Console is the Mills CLUB BELL "Century" of
1940, a late pre-World War II floor model of the earlier
EXTRAORDINARY format That serial number of 455,715
identifies and dates the machine and you can find close serials
and identifications in the serial number lists in the Volume 3
"100 Most Collectible Slot Machines." The earlier model with
the reward card to the right ofthe reel window is illustrated and
described on page 124 ofVolume2. When it comes to Coin Slot
Guides, the EXTRAORDINARY and CL UB BELL series are
projected for Coin Slot Guide No. 128 which is way down the

that job very well.
