I need help identifying this machine. I bought it over the weekend. And I drove forever to pick it up.

Looks like a National 14-selection Cigarette machine...

National series 111 or 99. The advertisement I have is from 1955.

Best guess would be around $100 (maybe more in parts), but I don't see a lot of value in it...big, bulky and difficult to make it vend products other than smokes.

These machines are all over the place (at least I see a lot of them in MI) so I wouldn't pay more than $100 if you want it. As pointed out earlier, big and bulky!  Tim |

It looks like he already bought it, said he drove to get it? from the looks of the photo, that guy probably had a bunch of cool Gas /Oil stuff,, judging by the GULF sign above the door.. any other treasures..
hope you didn't pay too much for it, as 100 is about the going rate... heavy too.

Yeah, I bought it. And I paid to much for it, plus the drive. Thankfully though, I bought it for myself and not as an investment.
I normally ask questions before I buy something.
But this time I really wanted it.
Thanks for the input guys. Your input helps us amateurs out a lot.

You found and brought home something you wanted. In the end it's all that matters

I pay over the top for everything... But hey, if its for you it doesn't matter...
As for long drives, that's just part of the fun.

Thanks for the advice about vending the little box candies. I'll try that.
But I bought it for display purposes. I think they look really cool. And I am going to paint it the original color, even though the original color is a little drab.
