Revised: 6/3/2008

The description erroneously stated that its original patent papers identified the toy as “The Educator”. Copies of the original patent papers (which we now have to accompany this lot) actually refer to it as “Educational Toy” or “The Yankee Schoolmaster”, patented August 26, 1884.

RARE & DESIRABLE CAST IRON TOY “THE EDUCATOR” AKA ALPHABET MAN. This phenomenal toy is both intrinsically appealing and charismatic. This toy was made in the latter part of the 19th century and would be the focal point for an advanced toy, bank or folk art aficionado. Often called the alphabet man, its true name according to patent papers is “The Educator”. This short, stout fellow with disproportionate extremities, upon depressing the lever, lowers his pointing hand, blinks his eyes and a new letter appears at his bow tie while his hand rises back up pointing to said letter. Just as cast iron mechanical banks were designed to educate and encourage children to save, it is obvious this toy was designed as an early educational toy to teach the children the alphabet or various words with that first letter. Only a handful of these rare toys have survived over the past 100+ years. Made of cast iron and gaily enameled in vibrant colors, it contains a somewhat intricate mechanism concealed within his body. This toy was prominently displayed at the famed Perelman Toy Museum in Philadelphia, PA for many, many years. SIZE: 10″ h. CONDITION: Overall paint condition is very fine plus with a minor repair to finger lever, some paint restoration to blinking eyes, and small internal repair. 1-8501 JL (80,000-120,000)

JONAH & THE WHALE MECHANICAL BANK. Popular bank based on Biblical story. When lever is pressed, Jonah tosses coin in whale’s mouth and the lower jaw opens and closes. This is a classic Shepard hardware bank from the Herberger Collection. SIZE: 10-1/4″ l. CONDITION: Overall chipping and minor paint loss. Has replacement trap and part of a replacement boat. 1-8343 MC (800-1,200)

THREE ANIMATED CAP GUNS. 1) Ives “Chinese Must Go” cap gun. Place cap in Chinaman’s mouth, when trigger is pressed, man kicks Chinaman in butt exploding the cap.

Place cap on man’s head, when trigger is pressed, the second figure explodes cap by putting hat on the first man. 3) “The Butting Match” cap gun. Two figures collide exploding cap.

CAST IRON HUBLEY “AMERICA” AIRPLANE. The largest cast iron plane ever made by any of the toy companies during the 1920s-1930s, it dwarfs most other toy planes produced during this time period. The aluminum wingspan is an amazing 17″! Pilot & co-pilot are seated in the open air cockpit directly in front of the wing, and when the plane is pulled along the floor its three props revolve in unison getting ready for the impending flight. This particular example was most likely produced in the late 1930s due to the fact it has wooden hubs & rubber tires and cast aluminum engine cowls & propellers. Most assuredly this was a cost cutting measure as it would have been cheaper to produce these individual parts in this fashion. Manufactured by the famed Hubley Toy Company of Lancaster, PA this toy is a “must have” for any serious collector of toy airplanes! SIZE: 14″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus with no repairs or repaint, rubber tires are older replacements. 1-8584 JL (4,000-5,000)

Wheels of this nature were used throughout the country at local fairs and carnivals as well as at firehouse benefits, VFW’s, fraternal lodges, etc. It appears as though this piece saw little use since its creation around the 1940s.

DENNISON “UNDERTAKER” COIN-OP AUTOMATON. Tucked away in a private collection for many many years, this wonderful automaton is fresh to the market. Manufactured by J. Dennison, prolific in the number and variation of automatons he created over the years, this is just another fine example of his work. Lugubrious in nature the scene depicted is of a gentleman in his coffin at a funeral parlor setting. When a coin is deposited the mechanism is activated and slowly a skeleton’s head appears behind the coffin. The corpse, a.k.a. John Burn, bolts to an upright position turning his head to view this morbid scene. In a flash the skeleton’s head is gone, but a more ominous persona is to appear…the devil himself! All the while the friendly mortician remains calm raising his hand, turning his head, and perhaps one can hear him mutter, “Mr. Burn must have been very bad in his lifetime??” Obviously this machine worked on an English penny as a nickel-plated plaque/coin entry inscribed “J. Dennison Leeds No. 53″ is affixed to the front of the cabinet. Machine appears to be in untouched original condition. Wood is typical of English production, perhaps a fruit wood, also in original finish. Appears there might have been a marquee of some type on top of the machine, which is not present. SIZE: 21-1/2″ w. x 14-1/2″ d. x 28” h. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus original condition. Rear wall has wood shrinkage, thus split through wallpaper.

RARE CAILLE NEW CENTURY UPRIGHT SLOT MACHINE WITH MUSIC. Always sought after, the highly elaborate Caille uprights with a multitude of cast iron trim are the most appealing to coin-op collectors. Noticeably, this machine is in much higher demand because of the music box contained within. A six-way coin head enables the gambler to play the safe odds (2 to 1) or go for the long shot (40 to 1). Regardless, upon each play, the gambler and all those nearby are entertained by the music. A 12-tune cylinder, changing with each play or playing the same tune over and over was often added to circumvent gambling laws, one was paying to hear the music with the gambling aspect as a bonus! Handsomely encased in a quartersawn oak cabinet with nickel plated cast iron coin head, legs, and other various accoutrements, the music box is visible through an enormous cast iron window on the lower panel of the machine. Machine is in functioning condition with music playing every time. SIZE: 5′ 8″ t. CONDITION: A few minor musical links appear to be replacements, otherwise machine appears to be intact and original. Machine marquee of more recent vintage. 1-8221 JL (35,000-45,000)

When a coin is placed in the slot the prospective player would pull the cat’s tail and a paper ticket would be dispensed from the cat’s mouth and a gumball could be had by pressing the lever causing a gumball to appear between the cat’s front paws. Appealing to machine collectors as well as folk art collectors, the cat is in repose and mounted to a wooden base that also serves as the coin receptacle/money box. Oftentimes missing, the original award card/frame is present with this machine. Enameled in a folk art style, the machine is painted dark green with gold swirls and a natural wooden base. An ingenious mechanism contained within the cat containing a receptacle for gumballs and a near complete roll of paper tickets. SIZE: 14″ l x 10″ h. CONDITION: Overall near mint.

5¢ BUCKLEY BONES DICE MACHINE. This example is manufactured by Buckley, similar in nature to the Bally Reliance this machine also lets the player feel as though he were at the Craps table! Almost identical, the main difference between the Buckley and the Bally machines is their castings. The Buckley superimposed a pair of dice at the coin entry as well as on the front casting. Both machines have a gold award feature and the Buckley model emblazoned the phrase “Bones” on the front casting, the slang term for dice. Upon depositing the coin the player can become an automatic winner by throwing a seven or an eleven or by making his point (displayed in left window), or worse yet, crapping out, thus ending his turn.

COIN OPERATED DICE POPPER/CIGAR CUTTER. An exceedingly rare gambling machine from the turn of the century, this device was made by J. J. Oaks & Son of Reading, PA. Only 3 or 4 of these machines are known to exist and it is believed that this is the only one with the original coin-trap door! Upon depositing a coin, one would place their cigar tip in the hole at the top and while turning the knob, the tip would be cut and the dice would pop. Most likely there would have been a paper tag indicating the award for the combination of points on the three dice. Finished in copper oxide and intricately cast iron sides make this a most appealing machine. SIZE: 7-1/2″ w, 7-1/2″ d x 16″ t. CONDITION: Very fine to near mint. 8-76230 JL (6,000-8,000)

CHARLES AHRENS “EXECUTIONER” ARCADE MACHINE. Circa 1920s, Charles Ahrens created a prolific amount of different working models/arcade devices. Always most intriguing, his working models depicted a plethora of different themes, such as this one portraying the execution of a prisoner. Most likely, the building housed within this case is a prison with guards positioned at entry and on upper walkway. Slowly the front doors open to reveal the hooded prisoner back to the viewer with a noose around his neck. In the background the priest reads him his last rites as soldiers look on. The ominous bell rings, and upon the final ring, the prisoner drops through the trap door to his untimely death. The oak case with a mirrored lower panel and elevated on fanciful cast iron claw feet. Now European machines are one of the last vestiges of untapped and amazing coin-operated devices and are highly sought after by American collectors as well as European collectors. SIZE: 78″ t. x 31″ w. x 19″ d. CONDITION: As typical, there has been some minor restoration to internal figures.

This, in essence, gave the gambler the assurance that no “bugs” were placed upon the wheel, thus assuring the player the chances of a high payout. In reality, this is not true. “Bugs” were still utilized, eliminating higher payouts. In fact, sometimes several were placed on higher payout notches (especially white and blue). Desirable as this machine is already, it is further enhanced by the music box with three bells. Perhaps this addition is not factory original, but it certainly enhances the appeal of this upright machine. On each play, not only was the gambler able to try and win big, but he could also enjoy the music. Encased within a quartersawn oak cabinet with nickel plated cast iron trims, the player could play from one to six coins and if all six were played, he was always a winner. Odds range from 2 to 1, all the way up to 40 to 1. SIZE: 5′ 7″ t. CONDITION: Overall very fine restored condition, replacement oak rear door, possible new musical casting on lower front of cabinet. 1-8220 JL (22,500-27,500)

CAILLE “OUR BABY” COLOR WHEEL GAMBLING MACHINE. A desirable early gambling device with a fanciful coin head allowing one to play up to five coins and yet if all slots are played you will always be a winner. Variable odds correspond with the different colors and their prospective payouts, hence red or black have a 2 to 1 payout with a multitude of red or black colors on the wheel, whereas the blue “our baby” only has 2 spots and thus the highest payout of 20 to 1. A cherry cabinet with rope twist corner columns, rope beading surrounding the dial, inset smaller rope twist framing the front and leaf applique motifs further adorning the facade. Perhaps this is one of the most appealing of the countertop one wheel gambling machines ever manufactured by Mills, Caille, Watling, etc! SIZE: 21-1/2″ w x 11-1/2″ d x 29″ t. CONDITION: Color wheel appears to be of modern replacement, coin head, although iron, is remanufactured, otherwise machine appears to be original and intact. 1-8250 JL (6,000-8,000)

1912 MILLS COUNTERTOP OK GUM VENDOR. A rare and desirable machine, this is the countertop version with a side vendor on opposite side of handle. A more convenient model that could be moved about and placed in various locations rather than the larger cumbersome floor model version. Cast iron coin head requiring the player to insert coin and press lever, advancing the nickel into the coin acceptor. Front panel consisting of an elaborating cast iron panel with curved glass exposing the three reels. A large award card frame and a lower elaborate cast iron panel housing the payout cup. The rear of machine has a wooden door (some wood replacement) enclosing the mechanism and a cast iron lower door that accesses the cash box. Machine has been restored, both wood and castings, to its original beauty and is further enhanced by the elaborate reel strips of bells, oranges, spearmint leaves, etc. spelling out the word “GUM”. Some time ago the side vendor had been removed and the holes in the wood side had been plugged. Lacking tin cash box. SIZE: 17″ w x 16″ d x 25″ t. CONDITION: Reel strips and award card are high quality reproductions, rear of head casting and money box casting have not been replated, but are in original nickel. Small casting flaw/repair to quarter of gooseneck access panel. Fine working condition. 1-8216 JL (6,500-8,500)

JENNINGS “TO-DAY” SLOT MACHINE WITH CONFECTIONERY VENDOR. A beautifully restored classic machine from the 1920s vintage depicting a Dutch boy and girl on the 4 column vendor front, complete with jackpot. A handsome paneled quartersawn oak case and polished and plated aluminum castings with gaily decorated highlights make this a most appealing machine. The Today vendor featured a cylindrical wheel behind the three reel strips that would indicate one’s winnings when the wheel stopped, hence three oranges would be 8, three bells would be 16, etc. Machine is intact with both original aluminum rear doors, however tin money box is missing. Machine has original fortune reel strips and original paper on odds cylinder, small award card on front is quality replacement. SIZE: 15″ w x 15″ d x 25″ t. CONDITION: Both odds indicator and jackpot appear to be disconnected and possibly missing some linkage. 1-8217 JL (1,500-2,500)

MILLS “THE JUDGE” UPRIGHT SLOT MACHINE. A more plebeian upright, “The Judge” depicts a man of justice adorning lithographed color wheel along with a large cast iron oval plaque on the lower front panel of the oak cabinet. Simple yet sturdy by nature, these uprights were workhorses and heavily utilized in the early 20th Century. Odds ranging from a 2 to 1 payout to a 20 to 1 payout, enabled a player (or five players) to bet on certain colors. A minimal amount of iron trim was utilized on these machines, thus enabling Mills to sell this version at a lower price than the more famous Dewey upright. SIZE: 4′ 6″ t. CONDITION: Overall good to very good. Some wear/corrosion to lithographed color wheel, lacking one lock prong on head front casting, paneled side entry door is a later replacement. 1-8209 JL (10,000-12,000)

1937 WORLD SERIES BASEBALL GAME BY ROCKOLA. Without a doubt this is the finest baseball machine ever produced by any company and is a must have for a collector of arcade machines as well as those who are baseball collectors! Not until one plays this machine can they begin to comprehend the ingeniousness involved in creating a machine of this caliber but also the sheer joy and magnetic attraction to keep playing until one has mastered the game. Featured are the infamous baseball players of the 1937 World Series games such as DiMaggio, Gehrig, Dickey, Chapman, etc. at bat and in the outfield Medwick, Dykes, Dean, Averill, etc. Atop the machine is a lighted acid etched glass marquee inscribed “1937 WORLD SERIES”. The original cardboard background is intact and overall in very fine condition with some minor discoloration or staining. An extraordinary opportunity to attain for one’s collection and a remarkable piece of Americana! Perhaps one should understand how this machine functions to truly appreciate the ingenuity involved. We will touch on only some of the highlights of operation. However, there are many more that might not be mentioned so please understand that this discussion is brief and should not be considered the “whole” picture! We can assure you that many nickels will be deposited and many hours of sheer enjoyment/frustration will occur when you play this arcade machine. After a coin is deposited a ball appears from the umpire’s chest (standing behind pitcher) and hands off the ball to the pitcher. The pitcher then throws the ball to you in one of a variety of pitches, the batter and you swing your bat. A paper cylinder on the right side indicates who is at bat and it changes batter’s name each time an out is made. The accurate system of balls and strikes is kept by means of steel balls in marked troughs. Many options can occur such as hitting directly to the shortstop for an out, down the 1st or 3rd base line for a home run, a foul ball, double, or a direct shot to Dizzy Dean, the pitcher, for an out. Twenty different options in all. All the while the three outfielders as well as the four infielders are nervously twitching moving slightly from left to right…positioning themselves awaiting to see your mastery at bat. The machine keeps track of men on base, runs, outs, strikes, and balls. After three outs, the game is over and time for another nickel. Internally there is a maze of wires, ball chutes, etc. for the operation of this amusement device, a most intricate game and at first, somewhat overwhelming as to the machine’s operation, but worth every minute. A number of these machines have survived over the past 70 years but few have been restored to like new condition. The consignor, renowned collector Mike Galvin, has indicated that several hundred hours and large quantities of money were needed to bring this example up to his standards of restoration and this machine was the pinnacle of his arcade machine collection. The machine was completely disassembled and rebuilt from the ground up. The cabinet was re-veneered and inlaid to the original specifications, the playing field was powder coated, motors rebuilt or replaced, internally everything was disassembled, cleaned and painted. There are at least 100 pictures (supplied to buyer) showing the various stages of restoration as well as some schematic drawings. One can only imagine the time taken in doing such an extensive restoration but now the prospective buyer only need wait for the arrival of this rare and desirable machine from the Julia`s Auction Gallery to his house or office. SIZE: 40″ w x 54″ h x 29-1/2″ d. CONDITION: A+ restoration cosmetically and mechanically. Fully functional but machine MUST be on a level setting for all aspects to work. Some internal parts have been replaced such as the motor and various other small and unimportant parts (switches, wiring, bulbs, etc.) Overall in very fine to near mint restored condition. 1-8334 JL (35,000-40,000)

CAST IRON CAILLE “JUMBO SUCCESS” CARD MACHINE. Believed to be by Caille Bros. of Detroit as cards indicate. This large piece of equipment was prolific in general stores, lodges, etc. during the early part of the 20th century. Predominantly in original paint finish, the castings have been renickeled and although the marquee is extremely fanciful, it is incorrect for this machine. In operational condition with original card strips that are in very good plus condition. SIZE: 5′ tall. CONDITION: Lacking cast iron cash box enclosure. 1-8323 (2,000-3,000)

1920 MILLS “C O K” 3 REEL SLOT MACHINE. This 5¢ gooseneck slot machine was truly a work horse of the roaring 20s. A simple yet extremely dependable mechanism that even when jammed or not working was easy to fix, even for an operator. An oak wooden cabinet with fancy front castings and a large award card made this attractive for the prospective gambler. Not only were you to take a chance and double-up or perhaps increase your investment by twenty fold, a package of mint was also vended, thus navigating the gambling laws of the time. This machine has been restored to its original beauty and charm, however the “side vendor” is no longer with the machine. SIZE: 15″ w x 15″ d x 24″ t. CONDITION: Overall condition excellent. Metal back door is a modern replica of original. 1-8212 JL (1,200-1,500)

RARE EXHIBIT SUPPLY “PHOTOSCOPE” CARD VIEWING MACHINE. A finely restored card viewing machine manufactured in the early 20th century by Exhibit Supply Company. Upon depositing a penny a limited number of stereo cards would be shown in sequence to the viewer. Of course one would then have to deposit another penny to see the other pictures of the ravishing beauty pictured on the marquee! There are five sets of pictures; it takes five coins to see all of the pictures the machine has to offer. Popular in penny arcades, saloons, candy stores, etc., these machines were work horses of the time with little attention needed or mechanical failures incurred during operation. The proprietor would occasionally change the viewing cards to maintain interest and thus generate more income for the location. This handsome machine is constructed of oak and has numerous nickel plated castings, most appear to female fairy-like creatures, embellishing the cabinet. Many manufacturers produced versions of this type of machine including Caille, Mills, Mutoscope, etc. However, this particular example is a rarer and more difficult model to find. SIZE: 71-1/2″ h x 16-1/2″ w x 15″ d. CONDITION: Restored cosmetically as well as mechanically and in overall sound condition. 1-8336 JL (4,000-6,000)

EARLY COIN OPERATED DROP CARD VIEWING MACHINE. A fine late 19th century(1890s) coin operated stereo-card viewing machine. Rarely do such early machines come to the marketplace. This example has a linen and wooden drum to which various stereo-optican cards are in place. Trimmed with brass colored ormolu which contain either glass or directions, and a fine cherry cabinet. After depositing a nickel one would flip the handle back and forth thus changing the images visible through the observation window. Obviously only a small number of images could be viewed before the patron would have to deposit another nickel to view more images! Of unknown manufacture this machine is in all original untouched condition. SIZE: 13-1/2″ w x 21″ h x 14″ d. CONDITION: Overall in very fine original condition with some age separation to wooden cabinet. 1-8583 JL (1,500-2,500)

HANS, FRITZ & THE MONKEY MUTOSCOPE CARD. Comical hand-tinted photo of two young boys and a monkey has been applied to front of this card. Seemingly innocent in appearance. However, with the presence of sausages and banana, some may consider this to be subliminal or Freudian in nature. You be the judge. SIZE: 14″ x 22″. CONDITION: Very good. 1-8324 (100-200)

ONE CENT PALM READER ARCADE MACHINE. Certainly a machine that received much attention at any arcade or other location. It intuitively foretold your future! One would place their right hand flat next to the triangular device, and with their left hand pull the lever back, and a series of metal pins would emerge through the steel plate, resting against the palm of your hand, deciphering your future and immediately dispensing said future in printed form, coming with a large quantity of original fortune cards. Perhaps the machine, intuitive as it is, is foretelling that you should buy this machine, and bring it home to amaze and astonish your friends. This device is encased in an oak cabinet with cast iron nickeled trims, and a white cast iron porcelain handle. SIZE: 63″ t. CONDITION: Overall appears to be excellent plus.

ZOLTAN FORTUNE MACHINE. Similar in nature to Carnac the Magnificent, one would select their astrological sign, lift the telephone receiver and hear their fortune told by the great Zoltan. Formerly on location in a Massachusetts amusement park, this mid-20th Century amusement device appears to be in original and complete condition. SIZE: Approx. 6′ t. CONDITION: Overall appears to be very good. However, the receiver, and recording device must be reattached. All parts appear to be present. 1-8496 JL (1,500-2,500)

CAILLE UNCLE SAM STRENGTH TESTER. For many, many years this machine resided in the famed Fey museum/restaurant of Reno, NV. Perhaps one of the most visually appealing and attractive machines to any collector. After depositing a coin in the slot you would determine your strength indicated by a dial on Uncle Sam’s chest by squeezing his right hand as hard as one could. An older restoration perhaps done in the 1950s, it is affixed atop a fancy cast iron legged base. In operational condition, Uncle Sam would be a welcome addition to a collector of machines or folk art. SIZE: 64″ t. CONDITION: This machine would certainly benefit from a professional restoration and would enhance the machine back to its original glamour and appeal. 1-8210 JL (22,500-32,500)

JENNINGS 5¢ “WOOD FRONT CONFECTION VENDOR”. Circa 1922 this finely restored three reel slot machine manufactured by O.D. Jennings had the added features of a side vendor as well as a viewing window indicating the award amount of your play. The awards range from 2 (2 cherries) to 20 (3 bars). This is the earlier version with the curved glass covering the reels and is in an attractive quartersawn paneled wood cabinet. A lower cast aluminum money box door and a quartersawn paneled oak door surrounded by an aluminum frame that protects the mechanism. In fine working order, however at some point in time the side vendor had been removed from the machine, most likely by an operator. SIZE: 15″ w x 14″ d x 24″ h. CONDITION: Overall very fine restored condition, replacement reel strips. 1-8215 JL (1,500-2,500)

RARE BALLY 5¢/5¢ DOUBLE BELL SLOT MACHINE. In all original untouched condition this rare gambling machine would allow two players at the same time. Circa 1930s, this was one of a handful of gambling machines that were produced by Bally manufacturing. A most complicated mechanism would eventually add to the demise of this as well as other Bally machines in the market place because when mechanical failure occurred that usually entailed more work to correct the fault then their competition’s machines! These machines are highly sought after by collectors as only small quantities survived over the years and many were either destroyed or scrapped out during WWII. The machine can be played by depositing a coin in the left, right or both slots and then pulling the handle. It operates like a normal slot machine but it has independent coin tubes & payout slides as well as jackpots. It has completely original painted surfaces, cabinet finish, reel strips, etc. Retains original cash box in bottom of machine. SIZE: 18″ w x 26-1/2″ h x 15-1/2″ d. CONDITION: Mechanism is functional although mechanism should be lubricated/adjusted as reels tend to be a little sluggish & payout is not always correct. 1-8580 JL (4,000-5,000)

An outstanding gambling machine, circa 1930s, with an earlier style wooden cabinet and the more desirable American coins decorating the front castings. In very fine all original condition from paint to reel strips to the finish on the wooden cabinet. The mechanical play action is also very smooth! This machine has a variety of American coins spilling out of the cornucopia and cascading about the upper casting. The lower casting is decorated with an Eagle in the center and a “string” of coins adorning the right and left side. Perhaps one of the most visually appealing slot machines ever produced and hence the reason why these machines are highly sought after by collectors. The wooden shipping crate retains the infamous Watling “Blue Seal” trademark which is identical to the decal on the side of the machine itself. This machine retains its original back door, marked with a “W” in a circle and its original money box as well. SIZE: 15″ w x 25″ h x 15″ d. CONDITION: Overall very fine original condition, lacking back door lock and some damage/loss to interior aluminum lip on rear bonnet. 1-8581 JL (4,500-5,500)

CAST IRON CAILLE “REGISTER” TRADE STIMULATOR. As rare as hen’s teeth this diminutive trade stimulator rarely surfaces or comes to the market. In original plating this highly ornate machine is similar in nature to the Caille Puritan. The concept being a nickel is deposited, handle activated and the three numbered reels spin and rewards would be paid by proprietor upon certain number values indicated on the three reels. To the left and right of numbered reels are two smaller windows that would have contained “counters”. These have been eliminated and closed off most likely by the original operator of this gambling machine. The machine itself being cast iron is affixed to a wooden base (refinished/replaced) with a cash drawer contained within. SIZE: 8″ w x 7″ d x 10″ h. CONDITION: Award paper is older replacement. Machine has replacement rear door which most likely should have been cast iron, not wood. 1-8214 JL (5,000-6,000)

ALBERT PICK MATCH VENDOR MACHINE. Simple by nature, this four column match vendor of the 1910-1920 era is constructed of oak, sheet metal and a cast iron handle.

CROWN PERFUME VENDING MACHINE. An early clockwork mechanism vends a puff of perfume through the cast iron lion’s mouth. The exposed mechanism has a double spring and retains its original paper label “New England Perfume Machine Company, Boston, Mass 1892 1897 Patent Dates”. The celluloid tags on front of oak cabinet are later replacements, the rest of the machine in is fine original condition. SIZE: 14-1/2″ w x 4-1/2″ d x 15″ t. CONDITION: A perfume bottle is present, but quite possibly not the correct original bottle. 1-8257 (2,500-3,500)

CAST IRON CAILLE “PURITAN” TRADE STIMULATOR. A fine early nickel plated trade stimulator that when coin is deposited and the handle activated, the three wheels spin and one would total the numbers and check the award card for the proper payout. A mirrored marquee allows the proprietor to observe the three wheels and thus pay the player his reward. Machine retains much of its original nickel plating however the paper on the wheels has darkened and is somewhat oil stained. SIZE: 8″ w x 9″ d x 11-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Lacking payout counter (small inset casting hole) and back door is an older sheet metal replacement. 1-8253 JL (2,000-3,000)

GRAND NATIONAL HORSE RACE MACHINE. Most typical of an English machine, this arcade device required two players, each placing a coin in the slot, with the winner receiving his coin back. Upon activation, the jockeys/players fiercely crank the handle, having the horses run down the straightaway, and leaping over the hedges toward the finish line. The winner triumphantly illuminates their respective red or yellow light, and receiving their cash award in a payout cup on the front of the machine. The loser, forlorn, returns to the stable and awaits another race. One perceives himself to either be a jockey or a bystander looking on as the racers engage toward the finish line contained within a wooden glass front cabinet with original finish. A most colorful racetrack background is illuminated within. SIZE: 62″ t x 43″ w x 18″ d. CONDITION: Very nice original untouched condition, electrical components have been adapted to U.S. electric current. Mechanism appears to be intact, however, upon close inspection, one can see a piece of linkage that has become detached, which would enable the horses to advance toward the finish line, most likely a simple repair, needing only the smallest of adjustments. At some point, this device was converted to U.S. coinage, and two instruction tags behind plexiglass were affixed to the front of the cabinet. This is a very nice original condition machine that with a minimal amount of time and effort could be an exceptional showpiece. 1-8434 JL (1,500-2,500)

WIZARD FORTUNE ADVISOR MACHINE. Of more recent vintage, this gentleman advising one of their astrological future both by delivering a card and verbally. The wizard with long flowing white beard and golden peaked hat at first glance appears mystical and mysterious, similar to Gandalf in front of huge astrological chart. One would deposit their coin and press both buttons. SIZE: 6′ 10″ t. CONDITION: Overall appears to be original and untouched.
