Lot #2309:
1¢ RARE BLACK DIAMOND PEPSIN GUM VENDING MACHINE
National Vending Machine Co. made the machine, Bethlehem Mfg. Co. made the gum. The sides of the machine state "We chew Black Diamond gum, We chew it cause most others are bum". This small "L"-shaped vendor is sought after by collectors for its small size and its heavy advertising on three sides of the machine. All labels and decals on this machine are original and correct. CONDITION: The machine's wooden body shows signs of wear and there is light fading and some paper loss to the side decals, however this is an outstanding original example of this very hard machine to find. Working perfectly. With keys. Referenced in "Silent Salesman Too" by Bill Enes, page 102.
Condition: (Very Good).
Item Dimensions: 4 - 1/2" X 8" X 17"
