ous coin machine interests held by Mc-
Ginnis in a number of States. He recently
also sold his arcade business in Quantico,
Va_ McGinn is plans again to make another
business trip to Miami.
McGinnis is in partnership with Max
Lesnick in the coin machine distributing
operation operated under the trade name
of the Baltimore Musical Co., which was
organized about a year ago. Lesnick had
formerly been associated with the coin ma-
chine business in this and other markets,
prior to his association with McGinnis.
The firm was organized primarily for dis-
tribution of music boxes.
Sol Silverman, for a number of years
. associated with coin machine and arcade
operations, has joined with A. Crystal and
formed the Senator Sales and Vending
Machine Co., and opened for business at
629-31 North Howard street, where in ad-
dition to their coin machine operations, are
giving their attention to servicing.
Due to the shortages on new coin ma-
chines, the new firm is giving a ttention to
the sales and serving of various lines.
The Senator Sales and Vending Co, op-
erates in the Recreation Center, one of
th e city's largest arcade opera tions. The
concern has some 30 · units alone on the
main Roor of the Recreation Center with
others on the other Roors and downstairs
locations of this large bowling alley estab-
lishment.

Distributing Company, of which Louis
Linden is president, has expanded oper·
ation Lo include the sale of records, appli·
ances, radios and television.
Linden, who formerly had been associ-
ated with th e coin machine distributing
field in New York and nearby coin ma-
chine distributing fields before locating in
Baltimore about three years ago, has taken
cognizance of the trends in the coin ma-
chine business, and has entered the record
producing field. He has made arrange-
ments with the American Federation of
Musicians, and is now having records made
by a well known record manufacturer,
who presses the records, under his own
serial number. He is licensed by the Pet-
rillo (AFM) organization, and has affili-
ated himself with other necessary agencies
for the production and distribution of the
records. These records are sold through
his North Gay street establishment. It is
planned to open several other similar
establishments in this city, and possibly
one in another city.

ing both candy and cigarette vending ma-
chines in theatres and other locations, and
