5 Cent Schiemer-Yates "Gibson Girl" Slant Front Upright Floor Model Slot Machine. This machine was manufactured in 1905 and was the forerunner to the Caille Venus or Victor slant fronts. As far as we know this machine is a one of a kind as there are none others known to exist. It works perfectly and the case maintains an outstanding finish. It has been in a private collection for the last 30 years.

20. IMPORTANT NOTICE
VCA usually auctions material at the rate of 60 - 100 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now, as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally, the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that VCA may award the lot to another bidder as its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay Live bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases, the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay Live bids. Also please note that all VCA lots purchased through eBay Live, carry a 20% Buyer’s Premium. Please make sure you read the terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Victorian Casino Antiques. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by VICTORIAN CASINO ANTIQUES, and all other information should be considered preliminary.
Winning Notification and Billing: After the FINAL session in this auction is complete, VCA will send e-mail invoices. This process normally takes several days. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Victorian Casino Antiques.
