H O M E RUM
F E D E R A L TAX F R E E
The New Outstanding Ball-Gum Vendor, With A Fascinating
Amusement Feature. [It’s Legal Everywhere.]
HOME RUN has a brand new and very clever
batting arrangem ent that is operated by a
trigger which bats the ball through the air.
Player receives a b all o f gum every tim e a penny is inserted,
except when a home run is m ade; then the home run b all is
disp layed just below in a separate pocket.
The m erchant
then aw ards the p la yer fo r sk ill, the b all is released and
fa lls into cash box fo r a record.
H O M E RU N is operated with 180 count ball-
gum.
Strip ed b alls are used in home run the
same as in o rd in ary ball-gum vendors; if the
p la yer should bat a striped b all into the home
run they are e ntitled to receive a double aw ard.
H O M E RUN vendors have been on location for
several weeks and have proven to be ve ry suc­
cessful, th eir
average
earning
power has ex­
ceeded th at of many outstanding amusement
games.
H O M E RU N w ill be a vendor th at w ill stay on
location
perm anently
because
it
offers
the
same appeal as o rd in ary ball-gum vendors plus
its beauty, a ttra c tiv e design, unique amusement
feature and the extra aw ard fo r sk ill. Don't de­
la y, try home run to d ay— IT'S A H IT !
