Title: Keeney Coffee and Tom's Sandwich Machines Post by: tkaz on March 15, 2009, 09:03:03 pm Came across these in my 'daily' searching...no clue on the value, but they seem to be in pretty decent shape. I need to stop collecting stuff for the time being...but I'm about an hour away and I could help ship if someone wanted...
here's the ad: (baltimore craigslist) This ad is for a vintage Keeney coffee vending machine circa 1940-50s. This machine is in great condition both esthetically and mechanically. It is in great working condition and comes with its original keys. Straight from the estate of a long time collector of coin op machines. This would look great in a club basement or any business with nostalgic items. Nice conversation piece to put in your coffee shop.$150. (The Tom's machine is $250) Title: Re: Keeney Coffee and Tom's Sandwich Machines Post by: MoonDawg on March 15, 2009, 09:29:04 pm That coffee machine looks to me like it has Brian's name on it! :glare:

Brian Thanks for the lead! Glen you knew I would jump for a cup machine! Title: Re: Keeney Coffee and Tom's Sandwich Machines Post by: Seven181 on March 15, 2009, 10:04:11 pm Well, that was quick. Just heard back from the guy he said someone local emailed right before me and is looking at it tomorrow. I guess I lost out.

I'll have them on Tuesday and add close up photos of everything. Should be a cool piece to restore. Curtis Memory Lane Restorations.

What a great find. Never seen a Coffee machine like that before. I'm sure you'll come up with some cool idea for it. You always have great ideas and your restorations always turn out top notch. Can't wait to see pictures when you get it finished. I'm sure it will be a one of a kind piece.

Looks as if this machine was being used as there were cups in it and seems to be 100% complete. Lots of cool ideas for this one. Brian, call me today if you want to talk.
