A very early cast-iron and tin trade stimulator manufactured in 1892 by The World’s Fair Slot Machine Company. After slipping a nickel into the coin slot and then pushing the lever in, the arrow in the “dish” area spins about, giving one their fortune. In the meantime, a bell “dings” while a token (a few are present with the machine) of various value is dispensed. The enameled black iron base with gilt floral trims is highlighted by the colorful play field. By studying the machine you cannot help but be impressed knowing it was made in 1892. Only a handful of these exist today. Works and has keys.
Condition: (Very Good).
Item Dimensions: 7 - 1/2" x 9" x 10".
