Have come across this site a few times when researching machines. Has been helpful and always wondered if they were a member on here

His name is Dave Small. Very nice guy. Awesome collection. Last I talked to him he lives in Indiana.

Thanks.. Hope he responds.. He states there were only about 3 original colors on the Columbus A model.. when I stripped mine down there is a lighter industrial looking green
close to the older Stoner machines.. I would like to make this close to the original color if I can... When  I bought it- it was the dark forest green the paint was sloppy that's why
I figured it wasn't the original.. but no red underneath so maybe the lighter color was original? it's my oldest gum machine...
