Mr. Robbins has purchased
over one-thousand cig a re tte
vending machines which are
now being reconditioned and
refinished for resale.
“ My reason for specializing
in cigarette vending machines
is that experience has proved
they are permanent and steady
income-makers and will con­
tinue to be,” stated Robbins, “ I
am now offering, at reasonable
prices, reconditioned machines
of all leading manufacturers in­

satisfaction. For example, one
operator writes, ‘For top collec­
tion s tr y T o p i c !’ A n o th e r
writes, ‘Topic is tops for play
appeal and earning power I’ Evi­
dently the operators are just so
tickled with Topic they can’t re­
sist sitting down and giving
Bally a sloganized pat on the
back.
“ It is my firm belief that the
price of reconditioned equip­
ment will skyrocket in the near
future primarily because of the
lack of material necessary for
the manufacture of new ma­
chines. Therefore, my advice to
the operator is to buy now at
low prices and protect his bus­
iness by investing in sound oper­
ating equipment such as cigar­
ette merchandisers,” concluded
Mr. Robbins.
“Honey, I’m knee deep in love
with you,” groaned the sighing
suitor.
“All right, I’ll put you on my
wading list,” replied the damsel.
