Traffic Cop Brake Automaton

Description

Rare automobile brake light automaton patented in 1925. Make sure that distracted driver behind your Model A is paying attention and mount this painted traffic cop on your bumper to lay down the law. Electrically-activated, the cop is designed to raised his white-gloved hands in the air as one hits the brake (a wire would connect the mechanism to the the brake light, engaging the arms). A rare piece of antique automobilia. (Note: I found the images of the instruction booklet online but it is not included here.)
