How much do YOU weigh?

Flash back to 1939, and you could weigh yourself for one penny! And . . . if you could guess your weight to the exact pound, your weight would be FREE and your penny returned!

What a suckers game, but it sounds easy enough on the surface. The catch is that you had to move the red pointer to the EXACT weight that you think you weigh prior to depositing your penny.

Manufactured by the C. R. Kirk and Company of Chicago, Illinois. Not much information on the web, but evidently this company manufactured a lot of different coin operated devices.
