LOT 01 1900s LOBDELL GAMBLING WHEEL

Sold for: £150.00

1900s Lobdell Gambling Wheel 

Prohibition of alcohol use became law in the USA in 1920, and lasted until 1933. As a result, illegal drinking and gambling clubs – ‘speakeasies’ – opened throughout the country. The gambling wheel that you see here was adapted from a Lobdell bicycle rim and would have been used in one of the speakeasies as a roulette wheel. The paint has faded on one third of the wheel.
