"1930s Northwestern Model 33 1 Cent Gumball Machine for Salted Peanuts in Excellent Condition" On display is a vintage peanut vending machine from the 1930s, specifically the Northwestern Model 33 gumball model. The machine, which is in full working order, boasts an authentic design with a transparent glass container topped with a red metal lid and matching red metal base. The glass is of the original design with no substitutions. The machine's container is adorned with an original green label that offers a friendly advertisement to potential customers: "You'll like these delicious fresh salted peanuts, 1¢". The base of the machine holds a metal dispenser, clearly marking the manufacturer's details: "Northwestern, Morris, Illinois". Providing a closer look at the machine's attributes, several details standout. We see the red metal lid secured with a black latch and a small lock. The point where the glass container connects to the base features a metal clasp and a textured surface. There's a key inserted into a lock on the red metal base for security, and the "Northwestern, Morris, Illinois" insignia is prominently embossed on the metallic dispenser plate. The overhead perspective emphasizing the latch and texture design on the lid, the glass itself, spotlights the "Northwestern" name proudly embossed below the lid. There's a final spotlight on the green label on the glass container; its vintage design and unique typography add to the delightful appeal of this vending machine. The paint on this authentic vending machine is in excellent condition, and there is no damage to any signage or labels.
