Title: stoner candy machine Post by: cohammer on December 22, 2013, 09:34:28 pm Finally got my machine home but I know nothing about this style machine . The outside has been repainted at some point but the inside has not . The rack could use a cleaning but over all it is a clean machine. There are a few service call dates in side on the right but the one on left seems too old . does any one know when these machines were made? Tag on back says made by LYON Metal Products.

I am almost completed with the artwork for the display glass for this model as I have one as well I would like to obtain a better photo with measurements of the "Important" warning label... looking forward to restoring mine later in the coming year...

Jim, Here is the best picture that I have been able to obtain but it is not from my machine so I cannot help you with measurements. :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: stoner candy machine Post by: HowDueYouDue on December 23, 2013, 07:41:56 pm Great machine. Enjoy!
Title: Re: stoner candy machine Post by: Jim on December 23, 2013, 08:39:48 pm Thanks Tim! I have the display glass imagery; I would like to replicate the information on the cabinet door. Actually, I really cannot tell where the "Important..." text is located...
Title: Re: stoner candy machine Post by: Roadman on December 24, 2013, 09:30:52 am Great machine, congrats! This is the rare, pre-World war II version with a clamshell opening. I believe all of these were made in 1941. After '41, Stoner was in wartime manufacturing until around 1946. Note the handwritten inspection date of 1941.
The later machines had serial numbers plates which indicated the build dates. Title: Re: stoner candy machine Post by: cohammer on December 24, 2013, 10:24:31 am I did find one more clue to this machine that was written inside cabinet that I did not see at first. Serial 3 & 35 J
Mach # 510 |
