2009-11-09Phil1081010NoVery timely response time.
2009-09-22Shari10101010NoThanks so much for the info. I think we'll hold on to it for awhile. We paid more for it then you estimate it at, but that's okay. We bought it because we thought it was interesting and we liked it. We'll just add it to the growing collection of coin operated machines for now. :)

Expertise

I am able to answer questions on old coin operated machines. These include vending machines such as gumball or peanut or other machines such as trade stimulators that did not dispense a product but were positioned on a store's counter to bring in customers or stimulate trade. I specialize in machines by Pulver, Zeno, and Mansfield and also any old cast iron or wood machines.

Experience

I have been collecting these type of machines for about 10 years and have traveled the country to antique shows and auctions.

Organizations
Coin operated collectors association

Education/Credentials
I have learned about many of these machines from traveling to view the collections of others.
