Harvey's Resort Casino $1.00 Jackpots Only slot machine

Postby rosekiller454356 » Sun Aug 07, 2022 5:32 am

I have a Harvey's Resort Casino $1.00 "Jackpots Only". Since it does have the slides intact, I am thinking it may have been a conversion made by the casino, and may be one of only a few conversion made. I have seen this $1.00 slot machine with regular payouts, but not the jackpots only version. It is a 25 stop machine, which would account for the high payouts. Any information on this slot machine would be appreciated. Hoping Monti is listening. Thanks

It's an Australian made Ainsworth Aristocrat, Harvey Gross had many different slot machines made by various manufacturers in his casino!
I've had a few of these style machines go thru my shop, one below which was a four reeler!
What questions do you have?
I don't spend a lot of time on my computer so I very seldom drop by the forum, too busy in the shop with service work as well as parts sales!
This slot machine was placed in the main casino, Harvey's Wagon Wheel back in the day as I started my casino work in 1965 in the Sahara Tahoe next door to Harvey's after the Sahara opened I had spent some time in Harvey's, the Top of the Wheel was a great local hangout!
Ciao!

THOSE MACHINES WERE VERY CONFUSING TO THE UNINITIATED. MANY WERE MIS-ID'D AS BEING PACE OR BALDECCHIS DUE TO THE ROTARY ESCALATOR. THESE WERE PROBABLY THE BEST THAT AINSWORTH MADE. LATER MODELS EARNED THEM THE NAME ARISTOCRAP.

Thanks to Monti and Mechanic for their information. I previously owned and later sold a Harvey's 4-reel 10 cent, however; this is the first Jackpots Only machine I have owned.
