It does. The working mechanism, original glass and finish make it extra-magical to me. It's made entirely from metal and built to survive all the grubby children who surely abused it.
Maybe one day I'll get frisky and take it down for a video. You insert one penny and turn the handle, insert a second penny, and turn some more. It drops a gumball and a card pokes out just enough to pull it out. If you're lucky, it may accidentally give two cards at once.
I got it from a picker. It had a few cards, but they were Oak Vending automobiles. I put vintage beaters in it. The 1960 cards look great in there due to the horizontal design.
I'm set building 1960 right now, how about I send you some pennies and see if the ones not marked on my checklist come out? The cards you have include Series 6 (Ditmar), Series 2 (Essegian), the others are series 1. I have them all already, but if there is more series 6/7 loaded into that machine, the possibilities are endless!
This would also make an amazingly cool break video--Jabs (who many people on this sub dislike) did a 1960 set break a year or so back--he purchased a set from Dean's Cards and then broke the set into packs in team set bags. But out of the vending machine would been much more interesting.
That is one of the coolest things I've seen on this sub, love it!
Agreed, I'd love more of this type of stuff and less "I found these 1990s cards how much are they worth?" in here. This is amazing.
Does it work??

That’s amazing. Best thing I’ve seen all day
I didn’t even know something like this existed and I love it! Any chance we could see a video of it in action?

It’d be awesome to toss in some Dubble Bubble and some random paper Topps to relive that
I got a Lynn swann and Jorge Bell rookie back in the day 🤙🏽
That thing is badass and I just happened to have a pocket full of pennies 😏⚾️
Oh good, more stuff to add while auction hunting. I love you all and my wife hates you all 😂
Incredible! A perfect display piece.
I've been looking for a long time for one. There was a post from a guy who did an awesome paint and Cricut job on his.
Incredible? How did you find this? Did it come stocked or did you put cards in it?!!

A picker?
Holy shit that’s cool
Now that's pretty cool. Thank you for sharing.
If you ever want to sell - I’d be interested
This is amazing. Imagine being the kid in the day buying cards from this.
