Arcade Racing Machines

Here's another of the arcade machines I remember from seaside arcades in the 1950s and 60s.

It's one of several variations of a race game for two players. In this instance turning the handles causes the horses to move. The faster you turned the handle, the faster the corresponding horse moved. The same cabinet and mechanism housed bicycle riders, cars, babies drinking from bottles (you won if your baby drank its milk before the other) and monkeys climbing trees.
