Found this nearby, looks to be older but I can't really tell if it's worth anything.  Anybody have a clue as to what it might be?  The ad just says 'antique cigarette machine'

I was thinking it would look great if it could be repurposed into a candy vending machine, I requested some photos of the inside to see if that would work.

       I have no idea what it is but...............is it sitting in front of a Stoner?

I'm sure that you could work wonders with that little old girl.
Give her the chance to live again... I would if I could.

for the $250 it would be minimal risk. Its probably only going to fit square candy boxes like Dots or Nerds if you go with a candy conversion.

In the picture its really hard to tell IF ? the guts are in there ?  

If it just   has drop slots in it you might could put 4 pack crackers or M&M I am sure something would work

It looks like a Uneeda Cigarette machine.

I have a national 9 pull I put candy in, its not a perfect candy machine since you are limited to boxes but it does work.

Tom . I have a couple of 1930's wall hanging British Uneeda machines. Didn't know they originated from over the Pond.

Well, looks like I'm #2 on the list, oh well!

looked at  a web site with hundreds of machines and the only one it even favored was a wall hung machine I do think the stand was added.Must be british

Here's a couple of pictures of the Uneeda I have. Also have the same shape machine in gum.

Hi Dave
  I don't have any now, but have had 2 over the years, very well made machines. I also had the big one with a large rotating knob in the center that was very cool.They are extremely well made machines, like everything was from yesteryear.
