The Bryans Story
The history of
Bryans Automatic Works
Kegworth

Latest updates: 22ndh February
Site created 4th April 1999
21 years old

Bryan was a mechanical genius, who invented 48 different amusement machine designs, and patented many improvements to their mechanisms. Whereas other slot machine manufacturers would simply copy existing ideas, perhaps with different artwork, Bryan would devise totally new and original games. Even games which outwardly appeared to be similar to standard machines had additional features like replays, multiple-payouts, jackpots and operator customisation. It seems that no mechanical problem would be too complex for Bryan's inventive mind to solve, and his solutions were often deceptively simple. Some of his machines were full of a bewildering array of levers, wheels and linkages; but they were always very reliable. They had to be, otherwise he would have been out of business very quickly.
