Re: Got an old brain? I need to pick it!!!!
Thought about one but after checking into the legality, thought I'd pass. Kids from the neighborhood stop in with a nickel now and then and get a Cracker Jack, chips, gum, coke, etc. I didn't need a vendors license as long as what's dispense is under 50c. Cost quite a bit more to fill the machines up but the kids and younger folks are entertained. All my antique vending machines dispense for a nickel. Had a chance at an old Kotex machine a few weeks back.................I passed on that too!!!!

It may have been later than the thirties, but stations used to have a spark plug in a bird cage with the notation " This bird was caught stealing gas."
