need info on mills
«

I recently found a family connection I have with Mills Industries. My great-grandfather worked on the coin return mechanism for their vending machines. He won an award in the early to mid 40's for his work. (I think 1943) I am looking for old pictures of the plant and/or machines and will post if I can find them.
Can anyone point me in the right direction where I can find out more about Mills and their machines? Also am I correct in thinking that the 65's and the 120's were the first to offer change for a dime or quarter?

Here you go a few pics.
The factory
The line.
The new product, only 730 lbs., and LOOK, it takes the new jefferson nickels. No more of them phony buffalo nickels.
