Columbus Model 46 / ZM Vintage Penny One Cent Coin Operated Nut Vending Machine

Description

Vintage Columbus penny operated vending machine. This is a Model 46 being aluminum top, globe ring and main body. The black middle section is cast iron. This model has the 3 ZM flexor bars just above the vending wheel to vend nuts and mainly pistachios to help keeping from crushing them while vending. The globe is glass and in pretty good shape but it is not an original Columbus globe. Standard round glass globe. Couple rough edges along the top and bottom but nothing very bad. It is still a good older globe. The machine was frozen up but it freed up and working correctly now with a penny. One small issue I saw is the small lower support aluminum collar at the bottom of the center of the wheel is broken off. About half the time this happens over time with these. It helps keep the vending wheel center especially when assembling but it does work fine once the 1/4" center rod is slide down and tightened into place. The bottom of this machine is gone...NO bottom base plate included. Machine is dirty and not restored lately. I will pack the glass separately. UPS in the U.S. 48 is 35.00
