Bonus Hight Top

I picked up this 25 cent Bonus High Top a few weeks ago and did not notice it had no groves in the wood sides does any know why that might be.

Thanks

Most likely a repro cabinet. Too costly to put all that detail into something you will not see.

I don't think the cabinet is repo here is a picture.

i have seen, and, have had them with and without over the years.
they came both ways.
as far as i know, there was no rhyme or reason.

For a bonus high top....I dont see this being anything but an original high top cabinet, at least for a Jewel Bell Machine it would have the groves. It is not an original horse head bonus machine or cabinet. But I am always available for corrections by my peers. Really thinking it might be a Jewel Bell cabinet but without the groves, i am thinking it is just a standard High Top cabinet painted for jewel bell, all castings should fit.
