Does anyone have any "Gold Mine" memorabilia

Hey All,
I was curious if anyone has any memorabilia from the Gold Mine Arcades. It was later turned into Tilts. But I was curious if anyone had anything like tokens, photos, or anything like that. My ultimate collectible for them would be the front Signage. About all I have is a few pics I found on the net. So I guess, this is all I can contribute. I also threw in a couple of pics of the neon from the Alladin's Castle in Knoxville, TN(formerly). Shame I couldn't snag it when it shut down. Anyways, I'd like to see memorabilia from Gold Mine or Anywhere else for that matter. So lets post some pics and swag.

I'm not even sure my arcade had the support beams, but it did have the rock facing for the entrance. I miss the gold mine. Hell, I miss the tilt at this point. I have to drive an hour now just to go to the tilt. And its like 3 tilts in one since they keep moving games from the other closed ones. Anyways, I'd love to find a sign. But some more pics would be nice too.
 
You could always have a sign made up to match.

That would be a really rare find to find an original sign from
any of the arcades mentioned.
 
The Gold Mine arcade was my favorite from the 80s, they had the best lineup of games in town,I have many memories playing there as a kid . My goal someday is to turn my Game room into a replica mini Goldmine with the wood beams and rock front and yellow Gold mine sign. Good luck with your finds and keep us posted if you find anything!

The arcade I own was a Gold Mine/Tilt.

Heck, the illustration of a miner is still in the back room on the wall as soon as you walk in, LOL
 
^ I would love to see some "backstage" photos of that (and Game Galaxy).
 
Oddly enough, I'm thinking now I might have gone to a Gold Mine sometime in the 90s.

What kind of arcade did the New River Valley Mall have?
