Hello to all;
I bought 4 boxes of slot machine parts recently. Still going through it all (lot of junk). But in it was a Sheffler Brothers cast iron back door. since I heard they mainly revamped slot machines, which machine might this go on ??

A friend / fellow collector has interest in it already. was one of the nicer pieces in the group of parts.
thank you for your time.

Not sure of the model but possibly a Caille gumball vendor.

Heres the back

JHSS_1944:
Your Sheffler Bros. door, is for the back of a Caille "Jr. Bell", as shown above. Even though Sheffler did do revamps
on several slot machines, they usually didn't bother with trade stimulators. This so-called revamp here, is an all-out
thievery attempt. The machine is Entirely Caille, and their revamp is just a cast door. Sometimes revampers will
have new award cards made with their name as well, but not the case here. The border design of all these doors
are the same. Caille doors have "Caille Bros. Detroit Mich", or are sometimes blank in the center. Funny thing with
the machine above, I have the serial number from it, and it is in the correct range, for this early model Caille "Jr Bell".
The door is an excellent casting, but the only advantage to having it, is to hang on the wall, or put it on a machine
that is missing a door, which many are, but then you are just making a 'wan-a-be' revamp. Oh Well!

Thank you Briank & bill !!! And in record time !! odd & interesting information. pretending you actually did something to a "old" used machine. but, actually just clean it up ,slap your name on it & resell it.
Well ,the man interested in it thought it might fit his revamped Mills, guess not. So , he won't need it.

The only "Sheffler" I have seen was a Jennings, revamped by B&D (castings with J.P.), but the reel strips were Sheffler !!
Again ,thank you guys for the information & photos !!!!
this will be for sale in the future (wall hanger.... ??).
