"Lady" Perfume Sprayer
Lady Perfume Sprayer by Mills Novelty Company, circa 1905.
A vending machine that dispensed three types of scents - violet, rose and lilac.
Perfume was dispensed from the life sized female statue. It was 82” tall and weighed 325lbs.
Customers were instructed to turn indicator to odor desired; hold the handkerchief in front of flower held by the statue; place a penny in the slot and pull handle down. Reproductions of this have been recently manufactured.
