About This Machine
Gold Rush is an electro-mechanical 'upright' payout device — a 'flasher type' slot machine — manufactured by J. H. Keeney and Company of Chicago, not a pinball machine. Like other Keeney uprights, it was built for export to the UK, since payout uprights were not legal for use in the United States.
Its theme centers on historical gold prospecting, evoked through Wild West-style prospector and mining imagery, and it includes Keeney's Panascope feature, though the specific function of that mechanism is not documented.
No confirmed production date or additional documentation survives for Gold Rush beyond a surviving period flyer, leaving many details of its design and history unknown.
