I bought a stoner theatre candy machine at an auction but cannot find any info on this particular model. Along with the 8 pull knobs for the candy bars it has the Lifesaver/Gum etc device on the left side. I have seen them on the other non-theatre machines but not the theatre.

Thanks in advance for any info !

I posted this yesterday & didnt see it come up...sorry if it posts twice.

Barryra, I have the same theatre with gumwheel. I've never seen one before that's why I had to buy mine. your's will be only the second one I've came accross. I'm sure there are more out there, but I believe they are rare. I'm restoring mine now and will post pics soon...

Hey.. thanks for the reply! It's fun to know something I found here in MN is rare!

I do not have keys for the machine. The one on the left is a round style & the one on the lower door panel is a regular key type. Is there someone that may have a key that would match?


I will try to add a photo.

Hi everyone! thanks for all your nice comments & information.

SIGNGUY... I am in Moorhead (across the river from Fargo) and no... we really don't talk like that... but my parents live in Gold Valley (suburb of Mnpls) I got the candy machine at an auction here for $300. I think the reason I got it for that was all or most of the people who collect this kind of stuff were at the Chicagoland jukebox/antique/advertising show that weekend.

Thanks again for the comments
