The various flavours of the gum, the famous slot fruits, inspired the makers to use them as symbols and the fruit slot was born. Its popularity led to many copycat devices, including the Operator's Bell, which sometimes came with a chewing gum reward to circumvent strict gambling laws.
The Liberty Bell was a simple automatic mechanism with three reels that could read sequences to give a payout for certain combinations. The colorful symbols have tempted players to try their luck for well over a hundred years, going back to the famous Liberty Bell machine invented by Herbert Mills in 1907. Fruit slot reels are one of the most iconic images in the gambling world.
