So I have a Midway Auxiliary Show Monitor for sale. Here is the advertisement flyer which shows and describes what it is.

I acquired it from a Bally Aladdin's Castle arcade that I helped close back in the late 90's and I have been holding onto it ever since. If anyone here is genuinely interested in buying this (I have NO time for tire kickers and time wasters) then let me know. Thanks.

Well, I'd prefer to not have to deal with shipping, as it is quite heavy, but if it ends up being the only way to sell the item for what it's worth, then yes, I would do so.

I also wanted to get a feel for just how much interest (if any) there was in the item before posting up details such as pics and info. But I can do so soon, as I do have some pics on my phone from a few years back, so I can dig them out later tonight.

And as for a price, I honestly don't know just yet. I'm still researching that. Surely this thing is very rare, but demand is likely low, so it's an odd one.
 
Ok, so here are the details on this item.

So this slave monitor was officially received into inventory on June 10th, 1982 and it was assigned property tag number 42603.

Now the pictures posted here I took about 4 or 5 years ago, so keep that in mind, but at that time it was actually still working. It contains a standard 19" monitor inside of it (Hantarax brand) complete with isolation transformer, all contained within the enclosure. And if I recall correctly, it came with some extension cable(s) for power and RGB video to connect with and split off from the "master". (whichever cabinet it was piggybacked on top of)

The parts and materials used for them (wood, grill covers, etc.) were the same as those used on standard Bally/Midway uprights and cocktail tables.

Even the key to the back door was still right where I had left it.

The original prop tag is still present and fully intact.

Matching property number sticker (inside the unit) as well as the units details.

Isolation transformer and interlock switch.

And so thats it. That's all I have for now.
 
Wow, huge memories of SF2 topped with these monitors! It's definitely something special.
 
I'll have to double check next time I'm in front of it, but yes, I seem to recall placing those connecting cables inside the box to prevent them from getting lost.
