1930s "Five Jacks" Penny Drop Gambling Trade Stimulator
Item Details
A 1930s ‘Five Jacks’ penny drop gambling trade stimulator manufactured by Field Company from 1930-1939. Player inserts a penny into the side slot and flicks the finger trigger to launch the coin into the top play field. The penny then bounces down the pegboard with the goal to get it into one of the five slots that would let the player turn the knob and dump the corresponding jackpot-to win. This rare gambling trade stimulator has a decorative metal front panel attached to an oak wood cabinet with dove tail joint construction, all fully original.
