Question

clock vend 1
I have an old vending machine I can find no information on. It has a label on the inside that says "The Fletcher" Super Automatic Service, 60, WILMSLOW ROAD DIDSBURY, MANCHESTER. I'm not too good with a computer, but I will try to send a photo.  The piece is 15" wide, 10" high and 4" deep. The wood looks like walnut. Will you please enlighten me on what I have? No one I have contacted has ever seen anything like it. Thanks, Joe

Answer
Joseph,

I will need a picture to identify the machine.  The label makes me think it was made by a foreign manufacturer.  Thus, I'm not postive what you have, but will be able to provide information after viewing the photo.  Send the pictures to buck@nvc.net
Thanks,
Chad
