Simple but attractive upright coin-operated bagatelle, one of a series of similar games from the same unknown manufacturer.

Coin-operated electric shock therapy seems to have been a departure from CW Brecknell's main activity of producing commercial and domestic weighing machines. The basic design has much in common with that of earlier manufacturers.

The mechanism of this Birmingham-made penny scale has much in common with the classic design by Percival Everitt of 1884, which was also used in Salter scales.

Rare survivor, this highly Art Deco voice recorder in the form of the Empire State Building briefly appears in the film Brighton rock (1947). "Coin operated. Electrically records the voice. Delivers record (which will play on any gramophone) and posting envelope".
