Ca. 1940 Daval American Eagle Trade Stimulator
Featured in this lot is this Daval American Eagle trade stimulator from the 1940's. The trade stimulator operates just as a slot machine does. In places where gambling was prohibited, these machines were able to be used in a way that circumvented the laws. This piece takes nickels. The machine will take the nickels and the lever can be pulled, but the reel does not spin. The piece shows good condition overall with wear present from its age and use over the years, but no major damage is noted. The back plate show major paint chipping. It measures 8 3/4" L x 8" W x 10 3/4" H and weighs 11 pounds and 12 ounces.
