Roover Brothers "Puss 'N Boots" Fortune Teller

Sign In to see what this sold for

Roover Brothers "Puss 'N Boots" Fortune Teller. This machine amazed and amused penny arcade patrons for the past 100+ years. It was purchased from the estate of a Seattle, Washington operator who had it placed 'on location' for the last 30 some years. It has been meticulously restored and is ready to delight new generations. Simply deposit one penny into its' coin slide, pull the crank handle to wind its' spring-driven motor and the automaton like cat ("Puss") springs into action. "Puss" turns and nods his head, retrieves a fortune card, opens a basket to his side with his wand, and deposits the fortune card into it from where it is delivered via a chute to the patron. This is truly a rare and delightful machine. Condition (EXCELLENT).
