Description: Offered for your approval is this NON WORKING and rare, "ELECTRICITY IS LIFE" ARCADE MACHINE. Genuine arcade game made by … more Offered for your approval is this NON WORKING and rare, "ELECTRICITY IS LIFE" ARCADE MACHINE. Genuine arcade game made by the Mills Novelty Company, Chicago Illinois, Circa 1929. Display this original, NON WORKING, antique as sculpture.

The NON WORKING machine is authentic and a fine example of an original arcade machine. What is great about this particular machine is that all of the stenciling on the front of the cabinet, the gold lion’s head coin slot, original red paint and the top signage are all original.

A common and vintage modification exists of an added external outlet that was done by some arcades.

Most machines have been repainted with loss of original stenciling and missing the marquee on top. This NON WORKING machine has the original top sign which reads “Electricity Cures Many Ills”.
To originally operate the game, simply deposit a penny coin in the lion’s head slot. It has the original lock (no key) that came with machine.

Sold as a NON WORKING display piece and not as a working antique.

Included is our signed and sealed Certificate of Authenticity.

Again, this is a non working arcade game and a wonderful early century arcade relic display piece.

Chairish sells electronic items only with the display as the intended use. The electronic elements are not guaranteed to be in working order by Chairish. less
