    This was a beat-up 1960's or 70's King Carousel Gumball Machine with stand. The original green had to go, but who wants to make it red like all the others?

    Wonderful job you did restoring that gumball machine. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. The paint job is looking better as well. Excellent work.

    LOVE this! I just worked on my vintage gumball machine, and looked for one to fix up for my daughter. I don't have the ability to powder coat anything, so I had to pay for a product painted by someone else. I appreciate your attention to detail, and the splash of purple you added to the candy wheel.

    Definately a simple but eyecatching scheme, I love it as it's still got the 60's vibe.
    I am going red still myself but chose a pearl Electric Red over what seems to match to Post Van red for us brits, will be spray but powder is deffo the way to go if it sees a lot of use.

  • @williamgottlieb8723
    @williamgottlieb8723 4 года назад

    Goodbye ugly green! Hello ugly purple! Seriously though, either color is fine when new and shiny. The problem is painting the stand the same color as the machine. If this was the way they were originally done or whatever, it is still wrong. The machine just becomes the end of a colored stick this way when what it really needs is to "pop" and stand out from the structure that is supporting it. It is like what happened with the lighting on the Empire State Building. The new technology is great, but they made the mistake of also lighting the TV antenna along with the building. The true outline of the primary structure gets blurred and dilutes the impact of the lighted building at night. Black, grey or even a rust brown for the stand would look much better and it doesn't have to be flat as a gloss paint would look just fine and easy to wipe clean.

    You can put your money IN the machine, or the smart kids would use it to unscrew the top and get all the candy.

    Around what year was this acorn made??? Is it old or like 1980’s ?.?

    • @OneMansJunk
      @OneMansJunk  5 лет назад

      It's difficult to date these, as this is a home unit, not a commercial unit that would be used in the public. They've been making these since the 1950's. My best guess is this version is from the 60's or 70's. They are still selling these today, although the base is a bit different.
