__ __
__ The chief object of this invention is to provide a device which has a secret mode of operation, so that delivery of the articles will be made only when the device is operated in a particular manner, other methods of operation resulting in an idle stroke of the operating member. Another object is to provide a device in which the idle stroke, that is, the non-delivery stroke, will cause a humorous legend to be displayed, or will cause a part of the human figure or manikin to make an amusing gesture, such as putting the thumb to the nose with the fingers outspread. |
