1930/40s Exhibit Vending Card Machine

We all like to hearken back to our youth, when times were simpler and days and nights were spent playing games. Of course video and arcade games and computers were decades away when pinball and vending machines were the rage among our children. How many hours were spent passing by those summer days in front of a pinball machine or at the five and dime store trying to score a Mickey Mantle or Joe DiMaggio Exhibit card.

MEARS On-Line Auctions is pleased to offer the following arcade and table top treasures, most related to the game of baseball. The majority are from the 1940s and '50s. Many are in working order or were remedied back to life. Dimensions are listed on each. Shipping will be substantial on some given the heavy volume associated.

Offered is an Exhibit Vendor Machine which measures 37" x 15" x 10". There is a cord attached but the machine does not light up. The front insert and cards are reproductions. Each coin slot works and the wood has help up remarkably. Orange paint surrounds the perimeter.
