Very early card-vending fortune-teller by Meurice & Co. (who manufactured fortune cards for other makers), possibly made as a one-off. No documentation or other examples of this game have been found. The Argyle Automatic badge is believed to have been added at a later date. Books attributed to the cave-dwelling 16th century soothsayer of Knaresborough, Mother Shipton (Ursula Southeil), contained rhyming couplets similar to the machine's slogan: DROP IN YOUR PENNIES I WILL TELL YOU TRUE WHAT FORTUNE HAS IN STORE FOR YOU
