Those are neat machines and I see that Nestles sponsored one of them:-) I wonder if in the future we'll look at vending machines of today and think they are charming. Hard to imagine, isn't it!
Ann Kennedy When I was a child all the amusement arcades along the seafront had penny slot machines. Not a single neon sign or flashing lights to be seen at all. An attendant sat in a glass booth just to give out change in old pennies yto use in the machines. Those old "slots" are now rare and sought after by collectors. Some travelling fairs still have a few and it's quite a nostalgic experience to "buy" a few old pennies for a trip down memory lane. 😁
