You got some really cool stuff. I love the pay phone and the parking meter. Did you restore the parking meter or did you buy it that way?

The parking meter came to me that way, but the post was something I had fabricated.

Since these photos were taken, I have added a 1967 Bell Phonebooth, wood/full function, a
claw machine and a off road video game.

Last night I started re-assembly of a National 11 pull cigarette machine that I re-styled in the
colors of Harley Davidson...it's the style with the light showing through the mirror.

This national is for my brother...who also wants a skee ball machine, claw machine, video shoot em up
machine, and a couple of barber chairs....I have him hooked but good!

I will post pics when the National is completed.

4 years!  It started with is list.  Then...the gas pump and in less that 2 years, 80% of the items you see
were in place!

Now I just sneak stuff in and see how long before she notices!  blush

The Phonebooth...that was a little big to hide, and the claw machine she loves..so I am
safe in that regard.

The pool table hits about 1895...Collander Brunswick...
