This rare wall-mount strength tester was produced by Detroit Medical Battery Co. around the turn of the 20th Century, and is one of only a couple known to exist. To operate, players would deposit their penny in the coin entry at the top of the device and then punch the pad. The dial would measure the force of their blow in pounds. The device is mounted to a weathered wood board, shows wear throughout, and deterioration to the leather of the pad. One key is provided.

Condition: (Good).

Item Dimensions: 12"W x 14"D x 29-1/2"T.
