1950's (?) Mills Slot maching

[cozymoller]

Hello, I'm trying to sell my Mills High Top 1940's/1950's slot machine. I don't know how to figure out the year. Also I was told by a slot machine guy online who took a look at the photo I sent him and he said my machine was probably not a Mills but a Sega because it had an owl on it, even though it says Mills. Can anyone shed any light on this? I have tried to attach photos. Not sure they came through. Thank you. Larry.

What you have is a Mills "21" STANDARD. This was the last of the Hi-Top series and came in 3 and 4reels. It also was continued by Sega for a time to use all the remaining Mills stock. It has some different parts and a jackpot unit which the last ones did not have. So it may be right at the end of Mills production. Mills Four Crown model came next and then later the open fronts.
