Question
Rodger,
I won the subject candy machine on ebay and can not find anything about this machine. I have seen only two pictures of these on the internet. I would like to know a little of the history of this machine and I also need to locate the missing bezel that holds the mirror on the front of the machine. Go here to see my machine: http://www.cm-antiques.com/photogallery/nov18/DSCN0017.JPG
Here is a refurbished machine: http://users.conninc.com/photohost/jeff24.jpg
Thanks,
David

Expertise
I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience
I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
