Does anyone know where to get a repro of this Mills emblem? 

I took the picture off of Ebay, it's blurry, but you can make out what it is.  I wrote the guy mrsdapop for a clearer picture and he hasn't responded.  I'd be happy with a decal, but of course an emblem would be better.

I have a very similar Mills candy machine but mine does not have that emblem.  I've searched all over the net but I can't find much information about them nor have I seen that emblem before.

I also emailed the owner about two weeks ago with a question but I never did receive a response.  The owner is dropping the BTN price by $50 every time it doesn't sell.

I've emailed that seller questions about machines before as well and never received a response.  Not sure what's up with that!  Not the best way to endear your potential buyers.

Here's a logo that I scanned from an ad.

That's a neat emblem.  Sort of funny to have a Mills cooler emblem on a candy machine though!

I hope someone from here buys that machine.  I really need to get a look at that coin mech area.

I think the emblem for the candy machine says "Snack" on it.  I saw an emblem on a Mills Coke machine, on Ebay, about 6 months ago that had a cooler emblem on it.  I asked about it and I was promised some photos but I never received them.  I wrote her later on and asked where the emblem came from and she didn't know if it was a repro or original.  She mentioned that the machine was restored, but didn't tell me by who.

I have some ads that have the emblem and some that don't.  I wonder if it was only offered during the forty's or during the mid fifties when Mills closed it's doors.

Does anyone have a machine with an emblem???
