    A neat looking gumball machine. I have friends here who restore old petrol pumps. Will try to get some pictures of their efforts to post here.

    Cool

    I checked in on that about 10 years ago and they wanted $100 per globe with a minimum order of 10 and didn't have a $1000 buckers to shell out at the time... I might just look into that again... I have a handful of the acorn decals that go on the globes also. I'm sure what ever I pay for globes that I could still make a good profit on these.

    These are super popular on Ebay. You can likely find a guy selling replacement parts for any of them. I have an old Bantam model made of heavy aluminum I'll have to post up. Very industrial, never had paint.
