This auction was aimed more at the collectors
of coin operated machines than previous auctions.
In addition to the
machines, there were choice architectural items offered. The auction

cluded catered food.
As always, the coin machines sold exceeded the previous auctions.
The fine restored items sold at premium prices.
The states now allowing private ownership of antique or collectable
