1¢ CHARLES FEY & SONS PISTOL RANGE SHOOTING GAME
This entertaining countertop game was manufactured in 1920 by Charles Fey & Sons. The player inserts a penny into the pistol, and then shoots that penny into one of three bullseye targets. Getting a coin into the left or right target vends a chocolate from the corresponding candy chute. A penny into the center target releases a confection from a special chute. CONDITION: This example is a recreation of the ultra-rare original. A beautifully finished wood cabinet with a curved glass dome, and cast metal panels with copper flashing. The pistol operates quite smoothly. Two keys are provided. PROVENANCE: From the lifelong collection of Bill Howard. Condition: (Excellent) Dimensions: 7-1/2" x 11" x 20"
