1897 Paupa & Hochreim

Postby capt7310 » Tue Oct 08, 2024 2:41 pm

I just purchased a 5 cent Paupa & Hochriem from an estate sale and of course I know nothing of it other than its old. But I know its a long shot (probably very long shot) if anyone has info on this machine, it is missing the front plate and coin box needs a good cleaning, but I like to see if there is or anyone has a pic of the mech, I really don't know if it's complete it does spin and take nickels. Thanks

I cleaned it very carefully from the century old dust and played it and it seems to work, but again I really don't know anything about the machine other than some research that's it's 127 years old, and possible only 5 known to exist. So maybe someone might know something about the machine, because of its age there is really little to no info. I think it's a really cool piece of history...

I know it's going to be very unlikely to get any responses, but I found some further info, so I'll just share the history, I think I have a machine of historical valve (maybe). I found this publication in one of my slot books, so again just sharing..

Did you also get the case, or just the mech?
