Any Info on this Stimulator ELK type Machine?

Postby markymarkuk » Thu Jan 14, 2021 11:17 am

What is it? Can anyone help with a recent machine I picked up. I know its a trade stimulator, feels very heavy probably cast iron, all complete. Has the top banner but broken off brackets cleanly. I dropped a coin in and it played and paid a token on the side. Came locked, managed to pick the lock, back was seized on, but after gentle taping from a hammer back is removed. Has very old coins inside!

Can anyone give some info about this, make and model, year, and how much shall I sell for? I usually work with One Arm Bandits so this is not my thing and know nothing about it?

I've done a quick video on my iPhone here:https://youtu.be/H17JT5h8vTY

Great find!
Obviously a French machine; name is in the circle; The Little Horses or The Pony.
made by Pierre-Abel Nau, Paris, c.1905.
The top casting says something like "Dispenses tokens good for one edible."
The 1926 date may be a tax stamp or license.
