1942
The Las Vegas, Nevada Board of Commissioners ordered all commercial slot machine owners to drop off to the local police station a master key for each of their devices to:
• Ensure the devices were operated honestly
• Determine the revenue they created
However, when merchants, tavern owners and gambling club operators protested vehemently, the matter was dropped.
