Latest acquisitions, my son and I picked up an extremely nice Glascock Standard cooler ( ok I know it's not technically a machine)  in Roanoke, VA.  Couldn't resist a deal on a very nice untouched Vendorlator 27 on  the stand.  Unfortunately it's 3000 miles away in California.  Fortunately #1 daughter lives 4 hrs from its location and will pick it up for me.   Going to Norfolk this weekend for a wedding.  My old friend is giving me back the Vendo 27 with solid door I gave him 30 years ago.  I will now have 3 of those plus a 72.  Time to stop until the next deal

Remember from a previous post, it's not "hoarding" if it's "cool" stuff ! ! !

Congrats on the new additions ! ! !
Also, I believe you mean a VMC 27

Hoarder is right.  Can't seem to part with anything.  I did indeed misspeaks.  The tabletop is the Vendorlator 27 the others are VMC 33's.

No.  Actually the "keep up the good work" has to stop.  At my age (just turned 60) it's time to start eliminating such things from ones life. Not increasing.  Almost got caught in another "collection" two months ago when I obtained a stack of 78 RPM records.   Went to some estate sales and now have an accumulation of 1000 such recordings.  That's not a collection it's an accumulation.  A collection has a purpose.  An accumulation is random.  I won;t be adding to the 78 accumulation.   What else do you folks collect?

I have recently narrowed my collecting down to soda related machines, picnic coolers and wall mount bottle openers.

I just came across a box of old 78 records in my cleaning. I'll make you a good deal!  Plus, do you have a Victrola to play them on? There are a couple here.  biggrin

Back when I was in college.. I worked at a men's clothing store and had to wear a tie... I would watch "Night Court" with Harry Anderson who wore the crazy wild ties of the 1940s..
so I started collecting 1940/50s neckties... I had 500 at one time.. I just have around 100 now.. love them... Hard to find now in the wild as that generation is all but gone (other than ebay)
Met some great men back then when I ran ads and bought them... one gentleman was at Pearl Harbor while it was being bombed... another was a door to door brush salesman.
Some amazing stories... But mainly soda and ice cream/soda fountain items.
