Question
I recenty picked up one of these in real nice condition. It has 6 vending columns, 4 are the size for tab size gum, and 2 columns are too small for the tab sticks. Any idea of what the smaller columns held. Thanks for any help you can give me. I really enjoy cleaning up old vending machines and placing the correct vending items in the display windows. Thanks, John

Answer
John,

Sorry, I don't know the exact product for the other two columns.  However, I would have to assume it was a smaller piece of gum since it is a gum machine.  I would think whatever you can find to fit in the column would be fine to use.

Good Luck,
Chad
