We had a good thread for the ESCO Machines - I thought I would start one for Premiere Card Machines. They were made in the 1950's by the Oak Manufacturing Company.
The original model the customer received a gumball and a card for a penney. There are also 2c , and 5c variations. Great looking machines that complement any baseball collection.
Below are some photos of my collection:
*1c version - completely restored
*2c version - completely restored
*NOS - Mint - all original
*Special model made with a larger body to be used in Belgium. Very rare and seldom seen - completely restored.

Joe -
If I remember correctly - that is where I got it.
It looked much different at that time. The guy who worked on the machine for me was an was an expert in the restoration of Coin-Op Machines.
He did a fantastic job.:D
Thanks,

The machine worked when I sold it, what restoration was done on it?

Joe -
See the photo below. That is the machine I purchased in the Mastro Auction 2008.
If that is the machine you sold - I am sure you can tell what "restoration" was done.

That is not the machine I sold, mine was the original red color.

Sweet machines. I'm wondering how the display cards are kept from sun fade.

Curtis -
My machines are displayed in my house - away from direct sun light.
Therefore, no fading.
Hope that answers your question.
Thanks,
