No person shall distribute mechanical amusement devices within the corporate limits of 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 City upon payment of the annual license fee in such amount as provided by ordinance. This 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 from purchasing 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.
