Dear Editor:
I have a working condition collar-button vending machine. It
stands lO1/^" high and 4" sides (glass). It has six columns to hold
collar buttons with six separate dime slots at the top. It is
marked Zeno Button Co., Indianapolis, IN, PAT Dec 3-1907,
Feb. 18-1908. I would appreciate any info on its value. Thank
you.

While Coin Slot Guide No. 18 covers all the Schall, Paupa &
Hochriem, Mills and Cowper color wheel counter machines, it
doesn't cover this color dial set model. But the interior
mechanism stuff is much the same, so it should help you in
restoring this machine. Oh, the Exhibit Silver Bells. Great
machine, Exhibit brought it out at the coin machine show in
January 1937, and then it literally disappeared. It's a little
known console. Great stuff, and thanks for the serials.
