- This is a non-payout model that advertised for $43.50 when new.
The Model Number may be advertised as 22, E22, or E-22 and referred to as the 'Regular' model.
Evans announced in May 1935 (Billboard, May-11-1935 page 60) that production was commencing for this game. However, we have found advertisements from this manufacturer dated prior to May that show a version with a different playfield and cabinet than the version that appeared after May. From this, we believe this non-payout game came in two models, and this Model E22 was a second version that they were announcing. We list here its most dependable characteristics that will distinguish it from the first model:
The game name at top of playfield is displayed on a ribbon banner.
Below the name, the horses race to the right.
The playfield is three colors with chevron borders between them.
The center of race track in lower playfield has numbers in it.
The coin slide has a round single-coin view window.
The first model is Evans' 1935 'Kings of the Turf (First Model)'.
