1920s H.C. Evans Jumbo Horse Racing Wheel On Stand
This is the largest Wheel of Fortune H.C. Evans & Co ever made and the most sought after. These decorative wheels were hand made and top of the line. This example has the original paint and a nice aged patina. You’ll also find perfect decorative mirror inserts with added red graphics. In addition all 50 pins are original and straight. This example has the 3 cast iron legs and the hard to find geared spinner number counter. The condition is amazing with the factory made leather flapper still in place on top. It looks and works beautifully. It stands 86 inches tall with a 60 inch diameter wheel. The 9 large reverse painted race horse motif glass panels are why they all want this impressive wheel… 88″x60″x24″… $7600
