No. 2241 Honorable Chairman: This is to inform you of my unequivocal support of the referen~ed H. B. No. 2241 which would amend H.R.S. Section 712-1226 regarding possession of a gambling device. I have had a 50-year-old functional antique slot machine stored in Las Vegas, Nevada for years and have been waiting for the opportunity to legally bring it to my home here in Hawaii for personal display as any other antique would be exhibited. I take great pride in ownership of this rare collector’s piece and would hope you agree that it is unfair to be unable to enjoy it in the sanctity of my own residence.

  • John Gabel: Immigrant Achieving the American Dream … and His Role in the Early Days of Mills Novelty Co
    John Gabel: Immigrant Achieving the American Dream … and his role in the early days of Mills Novelty Co. © Rick Crandall, 2016 This is an important, previously untold story from the early days of the creation of the coin-op gaming and amusement machine industry. It presents, with a rare first-hand account, a whole new view of how the Mills Novelty Company got its legs to become the largest and most successful in its field. However it is also an account of a man who exemplifies the strength of character, inventiveness and individual entrepreneurialism that has been the backbone that built the United States from a melting pot of immigrants seeking the American dream – and achieving it. This is a story that the late Dick Bueschel, the most recognized researcher and author of gaming machines, would have loved to tell in this degree of detail. In fact it is partially due to him that I can. As a tribute to Dick’s passion, enthusiasm and tireless efforts to bring information to light about all aspects of the automatic entertainment-machine history, I will channel Dick and write the next paragraph in his inimitable style: “Random finds might seem pure luck – and in a way they are – but if you work to make your own luck you just might have the same experience, often when you least expect it. The determined are in for a lot of heartache and wasted time. But … if after hard work, they finally make an original find … It’s a thrill that’s hard to describe.

David Bowers has collected, studied, and enjoyed automatic musical in- struments, beginning in 1960. In the intervening years he has written several books on the subject, including A Guide Book of Automatic Musical Instruments (1966), Put Another Nickel In (1968), Encyclopedia of Automatic Musical Instruments (1971), and Treasures of Mechanical Music (co-authored with Arthur A. Reblitz, 1981). He has contributed many articles to the journals of the Musical Box Society International and AMICA (Automatic Musical Instrument Collectors’ Association), and is one of just four recipients of the Musical Box Society International’s Lifetime Service Award. The author, whose main business over the years has been as a dealer in rare coins, has traveled extensively through America and Europe seeking information relating to automatic mu- sical instruments. At present he is creating several new books relating to automatic musical instruments. From the 1960s to the 1980s he was a partner in Hathaway & Bowers, Inc. (with Terry Hathaway), Amer- ican International Galleries, Inc. (with Bonnie Tekstra), and the Mekanisk Musik Museum A/S (Copenhagen, with Claes O. Friberg). These companies were major suppliers and advisors to many of the finest private and museum collections ever formed, including those of Michael Ames, Donald D. Barr, Bellm’s Cars and Music of Yesterday, Alan Bies, British Piano Museum, Arthur “Bud” Bronson, Jens Carlson, Dr. George and Susie Coade, Jerry Cohen, Deutsches Musikautomatenmuseum Bruchsal, Disneyland and Walt Disney World, Klaus Fischer, Robert Gilson, Kenneth Goldman, Murtogh Guinness, Roy Haning and Neal White, Judge Roy O.

The Cash Box has repeated its editorial entitled "Quiet”. This editorial proved one of the most popular to have yet appeared in this industry. Its popularity is based on the fact that this is the time for this trade to contain within itself its business transactions, its earning capacity and all other matters which might be seen or fall into, the hands of blue-noses, publicity seeking politic- ians, tax seeking legislators, or the any others who can harm this trade with this sort of knowledge. Surely, with the tax situation so seriously desperate, and continuing to grow more and more alarming each day thruout the nation, this is the time for - quiet. This is not the time for anyone to openly advise the world the amount of money his equipment is earning. Many will recall what this meant in one state legislature some months ago when a ranting, raving tax bug got up on the assembly floor and wildly waved a page from a publication wherein tremendous cash figures were openly printed regarding the earning power of music maahines and other equipment of this industry.

No. 2241 — Relating to antique gambling devices I am writing in support of H. B. 2241 which would amend Section 712-1226 of the Hawaii Revised statutes pertaining to the possession of a gambling device. I am part of a small group of antique slot machines aficionados who desire to be able to bring our collections home to Hawaii. The development of the first slot machine began in the late 1800’s. The machines were manually operated through a complex system of gears and springs. Of special interest, however, is the multitude of exterior housings that were created to enclose the operating mechanism. Many include elaborate die castings, machining, lighting effects and other specialized novelties. The question may arise, “if you are mainly interested in the exterior housing, why do you need a fully operating machine?” The response would be, “why would you want an antique clock, cash register, automobile etcetera it did not function?” The legalization of allowing the possession of these antique machines into the State also has multiple implications. 1. It would allow our local residences the personal satisfaction of being able to own and enjoy their machines here in the State. 2. It would provide a business opportunity to sell these items to our multi-national tourist trade.

  • “Slot Machines “The Desire of Everybody to Take Chances Is That Which Leads to Enterprise and Lends Variety to Life
    The Mechanical Game of Chance: Invention 80 Years before Silicon Valley By Rick Crandall Mechanical coin-operated gambling machines, usually called “slots,” have been popular for well over 100 years. The locus of manufacturing of the most popular of these machines in their heyday was Chicago, but the early creations that proved to ignite the category were created in San Francisco by an immigrant from Germany who sought the freedom and opportunity that was uniquely American. Many kinds of game machines and “trade stimulators” exploded onto the scene in the 1890’s – poker machines, penny-drop machines and by the latter part of that decade, the three-reeler came on the scene. It was Charles Fey, a 29 year old mechanic, who cobbled together the first coin-payout, three-reel slot machine that rang a bell upon payout. That was in 1889, in San Francisco. Fey called his invention the Liberty Bell. It may seem too much glorification to ascribe to the category of slot machines, the invention, creativity and the spirit of “can do anything” that is so American and so typifies the technology industry that was to form 80 years later, also in the San Francisco area. The men that “went west” were risk takers to be sure. The West coast was a ready market for gambling machines and was also host to the entrepreneurial spirit that embodied another form of risk-taking, namely the California Gold Rush. It all came from the same spirit and it defined the early Americans. It is a spirit that transitioned into the innovation and grit that turns dreams into reality so typified by Silicon Valley’s techies and venture capitalists.
