Antique International Mutoscope Reel Co. Penny Operated Arcade Machine c.1920
C.1920 By the International Mutoscope Reel Company, USA
Step back in time with this stunning antique coin-operated arcade machine.
The Antique International Mutoscope Reel Co. Penny Operated Arcade Machine, dating back to around 1920, is a rare and unique piece of gaming history.
This early 20th century arcade machine offers a glimpse into the entertainment trends of the era.
Despite its age and intended commercial use, the machine comes in excellent working order which is testament to the outstanding build quality of the period.
Comes complete with a full original reel depicting a nude female dancing in the garden amongst the bushes - This matches the advertising showcard to the top which I believe to also be the original.
This charming piece is sure to be a prized addition for any collector or enthusiast of coin-operated gaming.
A true vintage treasure from the 1920s.
Height 189cm Base size - 46cm X 45cm
Condition - Very good working useable order. Operates exactly as it should. NOT PAT tested so plug will be REMOVED for sale - Please ask about cost if you would like us to organise a PAT test. The stand has a decorative bar either side missing - I imagine one broke at some point so it has been evened out by a previous owner. Very likely been painted and touched up over the years. With keys and working locks to mechanism and cash box.
