Jolly Jack
Description
This machine is similar to the famous "Laughing Sal" that jiggled and laughed at so many of our now defunct amusement parks. English made, Jolly Jack came in either a an English Sailor or the rarer English "Bobby" After dropping a penny in the slot, a cam would lower a tone arm on to a 78 RPM record with a laugh track recorded on it, while Jack had a laughing fit (the speaker hidden in the door behind a metal plate), four other cams were respolsible for making Jack rock back and forth , & side to side, which also made his eyes roll sround in his head.
