Title: Books on Vintage Vending Machines Post by: Ezra on February 07, 2012, 10:42:34 pm Guys,
Is there a good book to get started with for someone who wants to learn about vending machines of the 1950's and earlier. Thank You Title: Re: Books on Vintage Vending Machines Post by: mznb1u on February 07, 2012, 11:04:51 pm "Classic Soda Machines" by Jeff Walters is pretty much the bible. The prices are outdated but it covers most of the machines that you might run across. And whats not in there is in the soda machine library on this site. The Walters book is out of print and the last time somebody was looking for it the price was getting up there. There are copies out there though.

Its good just to give you an idea of what the machine looks like..

As pointed out by Dave, any edition will do as it is a reference at this point and not a blue book for values.
