Sweet as Sugar "keyed" punch board. Chicago, Hunt & Co., ca. 1950. Twenty-five cent "keyed" punch board. Keys to these boards were supplied ostensibly to protect the operator from a gambler attempting to re-use a winning ticket. In most instances, however, operators used the keys to pre-punch the winning numbers and therefore avoid paying out on any of the larger prizes. With original secret key card. 9 x 11 x 1". Unpunched and in good condition.
