Item Description
7x20” base. 17.5” high. c. 1950s. Dry cell battery operated (battery included). Operation of machine is based on same concept as the game "Operation" - A wood handled grip has a metal loop attached to wind through convoluted small diameter aluminum tubing. If tubing is touched by loop at any time, lights flash and bell rings. Sobriety levels read; Superman/Sober As A Judge/Prohibitionist/Teetotaler/Tipsy/Skunk Drunk/Smashed/Plastered/Pickled/Embalmed. Lt. general wear. Decal by lamp post and the letter “B” in “Booz” show flakes. Not offensive. Fine overall. Pressed steel case shows Lt general wear. Fine. Small area of wood grain vinyl covering on wood base is lifting. Works well, (5 Cents per play). Lights up. Bell rings. Decal on back reads “Hartman Music.” Likely distributed by jukebox operators to bars. Two original keys. Lt. general wear. Overall Fine.
