    Have always been intrigued by the unique coin op stuff. Old digger games and such. Would like to get my hands on a Peppy the Clown someday.

    What's the most unique thing in your gameroom? What would you like to own?

    Rarest coin op I own. Artoscope, made by The J. W. Biturup Manufacturing Corp. around the start of the last century.

    What I always hoped to find was a Mike Munvees, Tiny Town Train.

    Nice! I used to have a cool stamp machine and it was in a box when I moved that accidentally got donated! Never found it. They pop up on eBay though.

    That is so neat! I'm going to have to look up how they work. I've only seen the flip book mutoscope.

    Three clock work motors power it. Battery for the lamp. Put a nickel in and the carriage rotates in a circle, stopping at each picture briefly. Look in the viewer. You see the image with a mirror reflection on each side. I have one of the original batteries for it too.
