Upright Roulette-Like Trade Stimulator. Circa 1890s. Attractive hardwood cabinet supports a central wheel numbered 1 - 60; pull the handle at the side to spin it and settle on a random figure at the apex of the circle. The internal flapper announces when the wheel stops spinning. With three slots below, presumably to dispense tickets or a fortune. No coin entry visible. Large and heavy. Working. Wheel spins freely when handle is pulled. An unusual machine bearing the name and address of a Cincinnati grocer, Bernard Sicking, in the space above the wheel. Possibly an early wall-mounted trade stimulator or partial machine. 32 x 8 x 44". Third party transportation required.
Working but worn, dusty, and with wear to cabinet throughout. Sold as-is.
