Late 50's Topps Baseball / card vending machine
 

I Pulled this out of storage to Photograph. This is a late 50's early 60's 5 cent vending machine. The advertising on front has a 1957 Topps TV westerns. a 1960 Topps baseball and a 1957 cartoon card displayed. This was purchased around 1979 I believe from a local Woolworths that was going out of business. ..I remember as a kid seeing Batman cards Beatles cards all variety of baseball cards sold from these machines. Dose anybody else have a display front with different cards? Brings back a lot of memories..

I grew up in Detroit in the 50's........the only cards I remember in vending machines were exhibit cards and I vaguely remember strip cards and I definitely remember "girly" cheesecake cards. Never saw Topps or Bowman cards in a vending machine in the Detroit area. Dave.:)

If you put 50's BB cards in it, I've got plenty of nickels. Nice piece.

If you check on the memorabilia side under Whats your most prized piece of memorabilia page 2 you will see a nice run of machines from Jerrys collection.:eek::eek:

Just looked at Jerry's exhibit card machines VERY nice group. I have seen groups of the display cards before but never a group of the machines Themselves. Very nice. You meet the nicest Baseball items here on Net54:)
