Smilin' Sam From Alabam' Peanut Machine

$575.00
This is a museum quality replica of the Smilin' Sam From Alabam' salted peanut man vending machine. These were manufactured back in the 90s as an exact copy of the 1931 original by General Merchandiser of Chicago, IL. You drop a penny in the coin slot on top of his head and pull the tongue to receive a handful of peanuts. The back of the head is removed to retrieve the money and fill the machine. These replicas have become very collectible in their own right as the supply has become exhausted, and the black paint version is especially difficult to find. This is a new old stock machine, removed from the box for the first time to take the photograph. Includes the original box, key and also an original brochure that was done when they were first made (selling for $875!). Approximately 14" tall and 11" square.
