a real Oak Vista gumball/candy machine which i almost passed on but i'm glad i didn't. i had to drill out the lock and give it a good cleaning but it works great!

1987 or 88 Rowe R-91. it needs some lamps (including that oddball 19w F26T8 that nobody stocks for the lower door window,) it's got normal bumps and bruises from being routed, and all the mechs have been pulled. but it plays great! my wife doesn't like the color and wants to paint the blue trim black; i'm considering it but haven't made a decision yet. it won't always stay in our dining room and once removed to the arcade space the color might not be as much of an issue.

i thought it odd considering my usual coin-op purchases are video game-related that these two were distinctly not.

anyone else have some pictures of their last & first?
