By the late 1930s, vending machines were being installed by Mills Automatic Merchandising Corporation of New York. The slot machine division was then owned by Bell-O-Matic Corporation. By 1944 the name of the company had changed to Mills Industries, Incorporated. Between about 19, the company's products included the Mills Violano-Virtuoso and its predecessors, celebrated machines that automatically played a violin and, after about 1909, a piano.
