I just bought the counter game at the morphy auction where you drop a coin into a jar full of water and try to catch it in a shot glass. Anyone know the name? :D

I haven't had time to check out the auction as yet, but what you probably have, is called a "Flip Flop Fluzzee",of 1939, by Star Mfg.
Not the same Co. as Star Amusement, that made several late model dice machines. Your game is most likely missing the decal that
would be on the front of the case, between the coin entry, and view window, that had the name on it. Many have not survived with
complete graphics, and some have had the case repainted. Although not a very impressive looking game, it is fun, but nerve-racking
to play. Have fun! :D

DeTrana:
Did check out the item you asked about above, and as I suspected, it is a Star Mfg. "Flip Flop Fluzzee".
Some of the front decal is still present, with the little lady on it, but the top area that is missing, is
were the machine name was. Unfortunately, that decal is not available from anyone that I know of.

Frank:
The green 1c Water Drop that you show above, I have never seen this particular example of before.
Therefore, no name, or mfr. for the time being. I'll be checking my files, when I get back to them.
