Looking for your thoughts
 

I have this 1962-64 Baseball Penny Gumball Machine. Some of the paint on the glass on the inside has worn off. Should I have it repainted or leave it like it is. Does anyone know were I can get another painted glass? Thanks for any help or suggestions! D.

I wouldn't paint over the original graphic myself.

There's a sign man in town that can make amazing designs in decal with his laser cutter. See if you can have a dup made to stick on the outside of the glass, protecting the originality of that stellar piece.

The name of the place is "I like it like that"...
 

I may be in the minority - but unless something is in bad shape - the normal wear and tear from usage is part of the charm of something vintage.

I think that piece looks great - as is.

Don't touch it, leave as is, you will be happy you did not repaint the piece.

Absolutely leave it as is. It looks great!

AGREE.... Leave it in its original state, as it looks great as-is. Once you alter it, it's no longer true to its history. Don't touch this one!!!

Thanks everyone! I think I will leave as is but have a decal as Steve suggested made and keep it with it so you can see the teams that are missing. Thanks D.
