Gum machines

[Larry]

Does anyone own a Rowe stick gum machine (blue 1c) or the pack machine (green 5c)?

I have a couple but I am not sure that they are the exact model.

Those are neat machines have not seen any for sale.

The top one is a stick machine, which is pretty cool.  I haven't seen too many varieties of individual stick gum machines.  Plenty of the square tab gum machines like in a Stoner or Mills.  I own the top one.

I'm buying the bottom one, not that machine, mine is more beat up.  Just wondering if the plungers on the 5c machine are stiff or do they have play in them.  The one I'm looking at has play.

The stick machine usually has just flat stick gum holders.  Mine was missing one so I bought another machine with busted knobs, but when I opened it up it had the square tab gum dispensers inside.  The tab ones are a neat design because it dispenses from the left side, then from the right side, off of the same column.

Just wondering if anyone had a 1c and if they had flat or tab gum dispensers in them.  They are interchangable.

Now,  that's a machine that will be easy to carry down the basement stairs... I want one too!

I picked up the gum machine and it is a Canteen version.  I actually like the recessed Canteen in the top section of the trim.

That's a great machine. If you decide to sell please let me know.
