Jennings Witch in original condition (not a reproduction).

Another machine that has been on my wish list for a long time.

I want to hear the fortune that comes up on the next pull. It could be prophetic.

Dave you may have to put an addition onto that new house that you had built.

This Dave guy needs to be reported to the site administrator; this item should have been listed under FANTASTIC FINDS.

cp - I know.

Dave - I don't know how you do it; I guess all the advertising pays off. I don't think I've ever even seen a Jennings Witch, except in the books.

It's really unfortunate that it has been reproduced. How can you tell the difference on this model between original and repo? It looks like the Witch is basically a Victoria with the unique front casting. I suspect the fraudsters are taking Victorias and turning them into a Witch, in which case the machine would have the original serial number. Does anyone know what serial numbers were Victorias and which serials the Witches had? What a travesty to destroy the identity of a Victoria to create a fake! Who's doing this anyway?

OK, I played the first nickel and the fortune reads

"You'll receive a letter from" "A beautiful grass widow" "with a shiny bald head"

I was afraid of that...
