Bell-Matic A/S "Speedway"
If numbers on PCB read "751905" - I suspect it's from around May 1975 (either by 19th week or by "05), but that may be a coincidence.

I assume you made this thread to attract Sune, maybe he can tell us more.

Google Translate says they're saying this is a slot machine, but could always be a mistranslation. Poster says they ended business in the 1970s.

I don't know much about Bell-Matic A/S but they have a number of patents re: slot machines from around the early-mid 1970s.

Quote:

Bell-Matic was established in 1971 and closed in 1977.

It is said that the company closed due to a fight against Bally regarding partial "copying" of Bally machines - Jenning's machines have also allegedly been copied.
The Bell-Matic slot machine factory was owned by major contractor Preben Rasmussen. (The father of the well-known TV journalist Peter Ingemann (Pure words for money, Gold and green forests, Hammerslag))
