- IPDB According to Marketplace Pictorial History, David Gottlieb featured the words "Liberty Bell" on his payout games in honor of Charles Fey, the inventor of the original slot machine, "Liberty Bell". In addition, the mint venders carried the Liberty Bell design. This can lead to misidentifying other Gottlieb games that also have this mint vendor. As an example, see Gottlieb's 1935 'Plus and Minus'. The solenoid-operated aluminum Liberty Bell mint vendor was invented by Edmund Fey and was used primarily on slot machines although its design allowed it for use on other devices such as this pinball machine. Its view window was supposed to permanently display five packages of mints to give the impression that the vendor was always full. A nice article from his son Marshall Fey appeared in the October 1985 issue of Loose Change magazine and discussed this invention as well as a 1914 patent for a rotary-piston internal combustion engine, granted to Carl E. Anderson and Edmund C. Fey. used
