Very Rare Victorian English MAHOGANY & GLASS
QUIKTIL CHANGE MACHINE
Bell Rings When Paper Money Drawer Opens
Original Glass Tubes & Working Mechanism
Made by Gaskell & Chambers
From a Connecticut Estate sale comes this Very Rare Victorian English MAHOGANY & GLASS QUIKTIL CHANGE MACHINE made by Gaskell & Chambers.
Measuring 11 3/4” wide, and tall and 8 1/4” front-to-back, this come with its original four glass tubes which would be loaded with coin of the realm as well as a drawer which pulls out for 1 and 10 pound notes.
When you pull out the drawer, a charming cash register bell rings and a brass drawer slides out which I presume would have either somehow held the coins from the tubes or deposited them in the curved metal tray above the cash drawer. The hinged lid at the top opens to allow the change tubes to be refilled. Given that this is well over 100 years old, it is in wonderful condition with only minor usage evident although the glass tubes, which come out easily, would benefit from being washed. Otherwise, this is pretty much ready to go should you wish to start your own business!
