Who else but Rick Dale would rate himself more important than the content of the book? Personally, I think the book is over-priced.

He did a great job authoring and not sounding like a sexist idiot: "Average Condition: This is a machine that will need painting before your wife will let it in the house"

     Right, front cover shows the 'King of Pop' machines and the back features Westinghouse 42's.  upside great choices.

     Who proof reads the book before it goes to publishing? Try and find a Vendo 81B or D in the index:

     http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Soda-Machines-Rick-Dale/dp/0615955517/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1413211581&sr=1-1&keywords=classic+soda+machines

     You need to click the "Look inside" link above his head.

I'm sorry but I would not trust anyone who just yesterday on a rerun of his show, auctioned off a restored "Vendo 72" jawdrop

$53.95 for the book, and has a restored Westinghouse  WE 6  priced at $21,450. I hope half the 53.95 goes to fact checking or a proofread editor

It looks like a cheap Chinese rerun of the book?  under the Vendo section, the go from Vendo 81a, and then the next one is Vendo s1d... I'm guess the S is suppose to be an 8?

Duh?

would love too to see the values... but not paying 53.00 for a look

$53!!!!  wow.... Was a sore issue back years ago now... but a guy, can't remember his full name (Dan.... ?), was going to make a really nice guide, had it
all set and looked ready to go... look like twice the machines and info.... but ended up being too expensive to print so he took the cash he had
collected at the time and went into hiding... Real shame would have loved to have had it... I remember him talking about photos of models of coolers
I've yet to see in any other book... Wonder if he just trashed it all...
