1950S JENKO GRANDMA FORTUNE TELLER MACHINE. A true classic horoscope machine that would have adorned the boardwalk or arcades from our youth. A gypsy-esque madame with her magical crystal ball in front of her, turning to and fro after one has chosen their astrological sign. She waves her wand, the mysterious ball flashes, and in a tray in the front bottom of the machine, your fortune scroll reveals itself. This certainly brings back youth/childhood and the joy and fun we all experienced. And now, one can capture that by bringing this machine home to one’s family room. Accompanied by many, many scrolls. SIZE: Approx. 6-1/2′ t. CONDITION: Overall appears to be original, and if not, then certainly any restoration is of the time period. A minor mechanical adjustment or two, a few replacement light bulbs will have this arcade device working like new. 1-8499 JL (1,000-2,000) Auction: Advertising, Toy & Doll - Spring 2008 Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price.
