Hello every one;
would anyone have a photo of a Mills lion head with a " correct" side vendor ?? my lion head never had one ,but has all the holes ,ect for one. so I was curious to know what it would look like , .... do the colors match , something basic for all the versions of slot machines ,ect. I can't find ANY photos of any lion head with a side vendor at all. So , I ask here.

thank you.

Should have known to just ask you first..... Stephane , thank you !!!
o.k. , just the basic early version.
I have no interest in adding one to this machine, since it originally never had one but, nice to know what would have been on it, if ordered that way.
removed all the gold paint from mine, will repaint it soon. the ser. # was defaced , can't read it. light coat of linseed oil rubbed on & wiped off of all the wood. will work on the glass pieces next.... removing the discoloration from between.

has one disc hole patched over & 2 pieces of another tin strip cut & added over top of the originals.
thanks again !
