OK! We're off to a good start, so it's a square-corner machine with no light up sign. does it say "Coke" or "Pepsi" inside"?  
well if I read the serial no. correctly ( and feel free to correct me if I smurf it up guys) it's looking like it was made in Feb. 1960  no. 2498 off of the line. Guess we'll find out when the Pic gets posted... the Vendo HD56A had a fake wood-panel door on the front & was generally an "Office" or a break room vendor for inside use. & shared many common parts with the other "square-corners" V56's shelves, vending rack, but the coin slot was on the interior door.
