Title: Stoner Theatre Candy Machine with Gum/Lifesaver Knob ? Post by: barryra on April 15, 2009, 07:44:49 am 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. Title: Re: Stoner Theatre Candy Machine with Gum/Lifesaver Knob ?

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...

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. Title: Re: Stoner Theatre Candy Machine with Gum/Lifesaver Knob ? Post by: oldskoolcoinop on April 15, 2009, 06:07:52 pm Hey Barry, glad to see you got on.

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 |
