I wish!... there's just antique store that are hit and miss (mostly miss)
I live 45 miles west of St. Louis..... You need to head west about 3 hours to Springfield
a couple places that restore and sell machines... can find a lot more machines and pumps in that area too.
All my machines came from word of mouth or ads that I ran.

Well after the Cards whip the Cubs there is a Fountain called Crown Candy
the owner is a Soda collector.... kind of a scary look'n neighbor hood. but it's a third generation fountain (1913)  with tons of trays signs, etc. and
awesome ice cream that they make themselves. They've been featured in mag.
