Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum
"is known from coast to coast, like butter and toast. From headlines to bedlines, from school rooms to pool rooms, this place is like no other that can be found in the contiguous United States and other environs of the free world."

No one understands hyper-compression like Marvin Yagoda. His museum is sandwiched between halves of a shopping mall north of Detroit in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Inside he's packed dense masses of historical and modern arcade machines, sideshow wonders, fortune tellers, automatons, and curiosities. Marvin is a 60-something year old pharmacist, and Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum is a hobby that went out of control.
The museum contains items of magic, neon, antiques, posters, airplanes, robots, animation, and all sorts of odd and unusual coin operated games. The coin operated games are the main attraction, and range from the oldest gypsy fortune telling machine of the early 1900's, to the lastest video games. All the games are operational. Admission to Marvin's is FREE.
Popular attractions at Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum are the odd array of machines. Most have a small, hand-lettered card that notes its origins. For example, The 'Drunkard's Dream' is a 1935 view of 'what a drunk sees after one too many'. A quarter satisfies your curiosity. Other popular machines are the fortune tellers, including the animatronic magic of 'The Brain', 'Ralph Bingenpurge', and 'Doctor Kill-r-watt'
Historical coin-operated machines are some of Marvin's personal favorites. For example, there's a coin operated glass case with a medieval dungeon scene. Marvin himself confesses, 'People like love, fortune, and torture machines'. For example try sticking your hand into a hole on something called 'The Great Chopandof'. A grinning character slams a blade down, and blood spurts. Is it your own blood? Only a quarter investment and a steady hand will tell you for sure. Another of Marvin's favorites is 'Cure Your Fear of Spiders', where the patron places their hand in a cage with a spider. Then guess what happens? Oh wait, you'll have to see for yourself!

"I played with trains a lot and later on got interested in girls. That’s one thing I’ve never learned how to master."</i>
