I'm kind of liking that light up (?) candy marquis. Does anyone know if that's original? I've never seen one like that.

I picked up the 1959 stoner machine last night. Only missing the mirror/trim.

Bottom is completely rusted out big time (i.e. rotted rust holes), so I may part it out if people need specific parts. If so, let me know.

Mznb1u Tim has dibs on the maroon bakelight knobs if I do part it out. Gum wheel, coin mech, cash drawer, rack all there.

The light on top appears to be original to the machine, as it has brackets that hold it on. Plugged it in and it lights up. Cool...never seen one before. And it's not cracked!

Jim...ever seen one of these lights?

The seller owns 100+ arcade games. Sold his house that had a 100 x 200 custom pole barn on his 9 acre property that housed everything. Barn had AC and heat and had 2 floors in it. He has every decent EM arcade and pinball machines ever made. Major collector...has bought stuff from Lloyd at Coin Op Warehouse in the past.

All the arcade games were moved into storage by the time I got there. I saw pics but that was it.

Don't want to hijack this thread, but is the EM collection for sale?
Thanks!

Bob,  Can you post a few photos of the light-up marquee...?
Especially the brackets, how it mounts and how the electric cord passes through the top.
I have not ran across one of the marquees, but looks very cool!
