    Description

    PLEASE NOTE: I SPOKE TO JEFF STORK (RETIRED NOW) WHO HAD ONE OF THE LARGEST SCALE COLLECTION IN THE COUNTRY AROUND 20 YEARS AGO WHEN I PURCHASED THIS SCALE. HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAD HEARD OF THIS SCALE COMING WITH THE LIGHT UP FEATURE BUT HAD NEVER SEEN ONE.
    Up for sale is an ultra rare Watling Fortune Telling Penny Scale Circa 1922 Gypsy Witch Black Cat Light Up Style. Turn the fortune knob to your desired question then put your penny in the top slot and get your weight and fortune question answered for 1 Cent.
    This is one of the rarest and most sought after of all lollipop scales and the fact that it once lit up makes it probably one of the few if any besides this one still in existance. THE LIGHT UP FEATURE IS NOT WORKING NOW BUT IS AN EASY FIX. The scale has its original porcelain light socket that was put in the back door of the scale. All that's needed is a new electrical cord to be wired to the socket and run down the scale to an outlet.
    This scale with out the light up feature is hard to find in any condition, let alone this condition.The condition of this scale is just fabulous and nearly impossible to find in this condition. The glass is in outstanding condition with some minor areas of paint chipping especially in the blue areas.The porcelain is outstanding with all of its original sheen. It was keep inside of a store. No major chips or cracks on the white porcelain finish. This is about as good as it gets. Scale has original keys for back door and lock box.The inside scale works does need some very minor adjustments. Scale is approx 6' tall.
    PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTOS CAREFULLY AS THEY ARE CONSIDERED AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE DESCRIPTION. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU PURCHASE.
    A very rare chance to purchase one of the most beautiful and desirable lollipop scales of all time at a very reasonable price.
