What do you think the value and how collectable would this gum machine be?

Not sure who makes it but sure looks nice
Considering how much Stoner Gum and Lawrence Wall Gum go for, I bet u could get a pretty penny
( No pun intended)

Rowe make those.. Have to be careful with the handles some are broken..

A few years ago you could pick them up for a couple of hundred dollars but now they snapped up and "pimped up" on eBay..

That one looks a little rough...

That's what I am afraid of , it may be too much work for restoration.

lots of people on here with far better skills of restoration than me but in my humble opinion providing it went
cheap there is still plenty of opportunity to bring this sort of girl back to life.

Looks like it might have been in a fire Just make sure those handles are OK...
