Title: American Penny Scale Post by: mznb1u on August 17, 2008, 08:07:48 pm I was the successful bidder on this machine of E-Bay and I picked it up today! We had a similar model at my dad's pharmacy years ago and I have been kicking myself for not keeping it ever since we sold the store in 1977! :darn: This will have a special place in my gameroom! :biggrin: Kind of expensive for a piggy bank but what the hell! :happydrinkers:
Here are a few pics. Anybody know much about these? Any idea where I might be able to get a manual in case I need to make adjustments? THANKS!

Would be cool to have one.. I rememebr those around my home town as a kid... Nice score! Title: Re: American Penny Scale Post by: mznb1u on August 18, 2008, 04:56:36 am Thanks Eric!
I have to tip my hat to Kilroy for pointing this one out to me. I was looking at a different one that was working but missing the rear door. Probably could have gotten that one cheaper but I went for the complete machine! Thanks Kilroy! :happydrinkers: Title: Re: American Penny Scale Post by: Kilroy on August 18, 2008, 04:05:37 pm It's a Michigan thing, we all look out for each other.
Congrats on winning it, as i recall it was a reserve auction, and I was afraid the seller was looking to finance his retirement. I'm sure you already found this site, but it looks to be useful, parts and diagrams, http://pennyscale.com/ |
