The Caille Brothers 5-cent Eclipse upright slot machine, manufactured in Detroit during the early 1900s. The Caille Bros. company—founded by Adolph and Arthur Caille—was one of America’s premier producers of coin-operated devices, known for their precision engineering and for competing directly with Mills and Watling during the golden era of upright gambling machines. Originally priced around $125–$150 when new (equivalent to several thousand dollars today), the Eclipse was commonly placed in hotels, cigar stores, bars, train stations, and amusement parlors. Before widespread anti-slot legislation, these uprights were a familiar part of everyday American leisure culture, offering both entertainment and small payouts for a single nickel wager, and served as profitable entertainment devices for business owners.
