No person shall distribute mechanical amusement devices in the City by lease, conditional sale or any financial conditional method, a distributor also being known as an operator, without first having obtained a distributor's license therefor from the Mayor upon the payment of the annual license fee of one hundred dollars ($100.00). The license fee shall be for the fiscal year beginning January 1 of the calendar year or for any unexpired portion of any such fiscal year.
Nothing in this section shall be intended to prohibit any person or the owner of a place of business to purchase such mechanical amusement device outright from any source, provided compliance is made for the annual license as hereinbefore set forth and upon presentation of a bill of sale therefor.
