Hard Boiled Egg Dispenser

Item# UA0429 SV

  • Description

$5,000
ca 1890
wood
German

This coin-operated hard boiled egg dispenser would have been found in a bar. As a novelty, the insertion of a coin would have prompted the hen and the rooster inside the hen house facade to make their respective noises, resulting in an egg being dispensed from the bottom opening. The hen house bears instructions. All parts are original, although, the dispenser no longer works.

25"h × 22"w × 11" deep
