Vintage Sam The Piano Player Automaton From San Francisco’s Play Land At The Beach Amusement Park

Description:

 Sam the piano player in as found working condition.
This vintage automaton came out of the famous Play Land At The Beach’s “Fun Tier Land” in San Francisco, CA. A western themed portion of the park. We believe he was built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company based on his motors and build, likely in the 1940s. Sam rocks back and forth like he’s playing a piano and his chest moves up and down to simulate laughter. Fantastic working order. His neck and hands also have springs to create further motions. We have never seen one of these guys before in our 54 years in business. Sam is being sold needing some repair to his paper mache shoes made of paper and chicken wire. Nothing major but needed to be mentioned.
