QUALITY IN EVERY DETAIL
After his father, Tom Watling , one of the industry ' s pioneers, passed away , Johnny
Watling busied himself with the very fine Watling Springless Scales .· All during the
decade of the ' JOs , Watling personal weighing scales were the industry ' s leaders .
Johnny did not neglect the firm ' s basic slot machine business . He held only to the
proved and tested models . The above "Rol- A-Top Front Vender Twin Jack Pot" was one
of Johnny ' s favorites . It entered into the decade of the ' 40s as one of the f i nest
slot machines made . This double jackpot and the triple jackpot by Watling were the
last slot developments of the firm .
