Rare Vintage Lukat the lucky Cat Gumball Gaming Vending Machine manufactured by the Lu-KatNovelty Company. This Lucky Cat was originally painted orange with black spots and was mountedon a wooden box. The metal cat has a left ear slot for a dime and the customer would insert the coinand then pull the handle, which is an extension of the cats tail. A numbered ticket would come out ofthe cats mouth for a prize and a gumball would appear between the cats front paws. It was like aninstant lottery. Records are fuzzy on the manufacture date it shows from the 1920's to 1952. This original Lu-Kat was painted black sometime in its' journey and is missing its' mounted wooden box.The cat is 9" by 14" long and is still in working order. The bright yellow and black eyes are looking out to its'future home maybe in time for Halloween
