ha just got one for my baby girl with the coin slot in the front so that it actually needs a quarter to get a gum..lol...ha now she can really save cause she loves gum....great auction I would have bid had I not already gotten one.at blockbuster for about 6 bucks...great auction...
I had this same "machine" for my fifth birthday....half a century ago. Sometime later, my bother helped me break into it and take out all the money. Of course we split the proceeds and so began my life of crime. LOL. Last Christmas I gave an actual double headed vending machine to my daughter with about ten pound of jelly bellies. She and her husband just love it (though they replaced the jelly bellies with hot tamales). There is nothing like a little nostalgia to make the holidays a warm and sentimental occasion. Thanks for listing and help conjure up sweet memories.
