Large German Oktoberfest "Hau den Lukas" Wooden Hammer

About the Item

Large German wooden hammer from the 1950`s. This piece was made and used for the famous old German game called "Hau den Lukas" (Hit the Lukas) which is still popular at fairgrounds and of course at the "Oktoberfest" in Bavaria. They all work on the same principle: Men (and women, of course) hit a button with the hammer. The blow of the hammer causes a metal body to rise upwards in the corresponding stand. The higher it rises, the stronger the blow. If the blow was strong enough, the bell rings and you have won. Dimensions Height: 94 cm / 37 inch. Width: 25 cm / 9.84 inch. Depth: 14 cm / 5.51 inch.
