Question
where can I find any literature or maybe a manual or any informationon this machine? any input will be apreciated,thank you.

Answer
Hi Bear,

Well my friend, we got a couple different old Bally Beauty's being made about 10 years apart so here's what we will do. You wanted some information on it anyway, so I'll put the link to each one of them so one way or another you will have it. There will be information there also and you will find books even listed where this machine can be found, so... Here is the first of the links for 1940:

http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=215

And for 1952 this link:

http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=216

This should get you a ton of information and locations and book to locate even more if you want. I am sure manuals can be found but you going to have to do some searching, like pinball machine manuals in google, or pinball machine parts, pinball machine dealers, or even wood rail pinball machines, which is what your is as it shouldn't have flippers. This should get you flying but if you need something else, please just ask. please take the time to leave some feedback here for me, my pay is the feedback I receive, all else is all totally free for you.

Thank You Bear!

Sincerely

Expertise

I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience

I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
