Please read entire ad so there is no confusion.As I continue to downsize my collection, this Columbus Model M is cast iron and porcelain and all original.Production of these machines began in 1928 but not many were released until the patent in 1930.I have no idea the exact year this was made.I have not done any restoration on this machine.This machine works on a penny every time and vends as it should.The globe has some flaking on the bottom and a 1/4" chip on the top of the globe. When assembled the chip is not seen. Some scratches which are to be expected with a vender this old but the globe is "very" solid.The name "Columbus" above the star on the globe is very legible. The return spring works on this machine.This vender comes with the original rubber feet and I will let the new owner decide to leave original or replace.Aside from new locks, everything is original even the gaskets for the globe.Some easy assembly will be required since I will pack the globe separately but ship it in the same box.Please keep reading.Any questions, please ask. Pictures are best part of description..99 cent starting price with no reserve.Please if you don't agree with the shipping charge don't bid.
