Just sharing a couple of photos of this N.O.S. Tom's machine I recently purchased...
I bought it from the grandson of the gentleman that bought it new back in the early 60's & never used it!
The four legs, bottom compartment, bag of bolts, and coin box were in the original box that is in poor condition.
I am the person that put this machine together for the first time in 45+ years ! ! !
It has two imperfections and I had to get a key made as the original owner lost them... Sadly, the new key doesn't open the top,but I'll get this taken care of...

Can any modern product and it's packaging be used for vending?

Thanks everyone!
I think it's very cool too!
Very cool taking the original nuts/bolts out of the original cloth bag and assembling the machine!

Looks Great!
Can any modern product and it's packaging be used for vending?
My Tom's 5 select model can vend peanut butter crackers from the center column; this machine appears to have capabilities to vend the same crackers from multiple columns...

Tom's machines aren't my thing, but N.O.S., I had to buy it! And to think the machine had been up for a couple of days before I found it... Thanks Leonard!
