Finally Got a Popmatic Popcorn machine...

[SIGNGUY]

Ok, I know I know, she's not pretty and it's a different version than the one we've seen restored in the past and I"m sure it's missing a few parts.. but hey I've always wanted one and the price was right...

I'm going to put it up for sale at Chicago and see if I get any takers, and if not , I may just restore it for a display machine, as they do look pretty cool restored.. would have to make up the top and signage but I got people for that! (and you know who you are).. 

Maybe I'll send it out to Ricks Restoration as I'm sure he can just find the extra parts needed in his "Boneyard" as he does with so many other hard to find parts!

I have never seen one like that...who made it? Was it circa 1950's?

[SIGNGUY]

Pretty sure circa 1940's early 50's... restored they look killer!
this is the earlier version in the photo, but I would restore it to look like this..

they were from the 40's, it runs on a clock mechanism, it only uses electricity for the heater and the lights(sign). very nice John, i have a mint original one, if you dont sell it and need some help, pictures, etc let me know.  does it have the clock mechanism?

sorry not the best pic but the first one i found

I like it John. Can't wait to see in Chicago

Those look great restored. Looks like you will be fabricating some parts if you restore the one you got John, but would be well worth it .
