Description
*NO SHIPPING! - PICKUP OR THIRD PARTY TRANSPORT ONLY* Made by the Sapho Mfg. Co. of Chicago circa 1898 it was the first of the large commercial floor standing peep shows with 4 sets of 12 replaceable stereo cards. The unit was originally self contained.

Cabinet is floor model on 4" X 4" square legs and has a side door for coin access. The wood marquee is not original to the piece and looks like it was cut down from a coin op cylinder phonograph marquee. Operates on 5 cents. Cabinet stands 59.5" tall,18" wide, 18" deep. Add 26" to height for marquee.
