Description
Clink. Clink. Clink. Clink. Grandmother Yvette has been feeding the same slot machine in the casino at Monte Carlo for twenty minutes, pearls on, handbag clutched under her arm, studiously ignoring her son’s sighs. One last coin. She pulls the lever, the reels spin, and one by one they settle: seven, seven, seven. Lights flash, bells ring, and coins pour into the tray like a silver waterfall. She does not even smile. She simply says, “I told you so.”
This slot machine captures all the glitter and suspense of that moment. It makes a fun gift for someone heading off to Las Vegas or the Riviera, a birthday treat for a friend who never misses poker night, or a good-luck present before a big exam, interview or new venture. Its lever and lucky sevens bring a wink of humor to a desk, a games room shelf or a bar cart, and it can keep a lucky coin or a pair of dice safe between outings.
