1¢ AHRENS "ELECTRIC PALMISTRY" PALM READER FORTUNE

Item Details

Description

This is an English fortune teller machine from Charles Ahrens and dates to 1922. Ahrens made two versions of this machine, one with a slant top to keep patrons from putting their beer bottles on it, and this one with a flat top, believed to be an earlier version. This cool arcade machine has a great instruction graphics behind glass up top, two cast angel head adornments, and palm casting where the patron placed their hand to have their palm read. This machine is complete and unrestored. Operates on an English penny. This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made. Condition: (Good - Very Good). Dimensions: 60" x 30" x 24".
