Progressive Mfg. Pana, Ill, "Wizard" 8 day, time and strike spring brass lever movement black mantel clock and trade stimulator. The "Dixon" model clock was supplied by the Waterbury Clock Co.. The clock has a coin slot at the top. When a nickel was deposited, it triggered the strike train of the clock which drives a token dispensing system. A modified countwheel will dispense one, two, and on rare occasion, three tokens in the tray mounted to the side of the clock. Tokens were then exchanged for small items at the retail location. Five coins are included. Black enameled case has some dings and scratches to the finish. Paper dial appears original with some surface abrasion. Original hands. Balance wheel movement will need service. Interesting label on the back that reads: "Patented May 9th, 1905, The Progressive Mfg. Co. Sole Manufacturer, Pana, Ill. ".
