This vintage Dragline is the same as you would find as you walked down the midway at the old carnivals and fairs. All the original toys and prizes are included. I added a couple extra that I remenbered were t, but I never won. (Such as the Camel lighter). The machine lights up and you insert a quarter to play, (originally I remember these were 10 cents to play). No coin box inside, no key. Use the crane to pick up a prize and drop it into the side shoot. Glass and wood are in very good condition and appears original. Crane is also in good working order. T is a button on the back side to reset the machine if you do not want to have to pay. The machine need to be plugged in so the electric trip lever works properly. This is a countertop style Dragline. I do not remember ever seeing any free standing Dragline machines along the midways. The Dragline is approx. 75 pounds (as setup with gravel and prizes). Height is 28", width is 22", Depth is 18". This Dragline has brought back alot of good memories of the carnivals and fairs now gone. I've enjoyed it for 25 years, now its someone elses turn. Nice addition to any collection. The prizes included; 2 clear glass mugs, 1 milk glass mug, 1 minature camera, 1 minature camera case, 1 penny Good Luck keychain, 1 black rabbit foot, 1 small plastic fan, 1 keychain pirate pistol, 1 metal boot, read more
