I drive by the Lance factory here in Charlotte pretty often, my neighbor has worked sales for them for a long time now and we recently were talking about how they used to destroy all the old machines when replaced with new.  Especially after Tom's was bought by Lance.  He says he could have filled his garage with all the old machines, but nobody wanted them so off to the scrapyard they went.

Yeah TKAZ that's true my friend is an old retired lance salesman and he has some good stories like that too. I have a lot of pictures from the factory that show machines and displays set ups and old delivery tricks. They tell a neat story from long ago, big difference today.

Here are a couple pictures of the Tom's cabinet that I promised to post. These don't come up for auction very often they are really rare. These would have been one the honor system . I bet that would not work in today's society.LOL
