Bubble Gum Slot Machine
Joey and Sam ran over to the gumball machine. The gumballs came in every colour: green, blue, red, yellow, orange, and even fuchsia. “I want a red one,” said Joey. “I want a blue one,” said Sam. Joey stuck the quarter into the slot and turned the dial all the way around. The gumball didn’t come out. Something wasn’t right. Interesting Facts about Gumball Machines The first home use gumball machine was produced in 1972 by the Oak Manufacturing Company in California. The owner of the company realized that people were interested in having a gumball machine in their homes but were unwilling to pay the cost of a commercial machine. This bubblegum-themed slot is going to impress you with its multi-colored and user-friendly interface to make your gambling experience even more satisfying and pleasant. In case you manage to hit a right number of bright and vivid bubble-symbols, you’ll get a chance to collect some gorgeous winnings.
My name is Dave Small, and I've collected antique coin-operated vendors since 1991 when I bought my first one at a swap meet in Costa Mesa, CA. My interest lies predominantly in gum, candy, and peanut machines from the late 1800's through the start of World War II, so that's mainly what you'll see here---but I also have other types of vendors tossed in for good measure.
On this site you'll find the following:
- Pictures and descriptions of stuff I own now, owned at some point after I started the site (in 2003) but no longer own, or never owned but temporarily possessed. These include any information I have on the model and think is relevant and potentially interesting, as well as any interesting stories associated with the specific machine(s) shown. Interesting to me, anyway, but you be the judge.
- Other information and links to sites that may interest you.
- Musings, rants, raves, and articles that may interest collectors or potential collectors.
- Stuff for sale, most of which was in my collection until it got bumped by other stuff now in my collection. Like all collectors, my spatial and financial resources are finite so I sometimes have to make Tough Choices about what to keep and what to sell. Having said that, using the site to sell stuff is not a high priority for me, so if you're looking for something in particular please email me. I may have it but it may never make it to that page, or I may know someone else who does.

Our history in vending began in the 1940s when the late Jack Dow created the first coin operated kiddie ride, the Rocking Horse.
Dow Manufacturing operated over 1000 machines between the 1950s and 1980s an evolved into Novelvend and finally MME Pty Ltd which operated Talking Capsule Vendor Machines throughout the Kmart, Target, Coles and Safeway chains in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Penny Junction Australia Pty Ltd founded in 1994 introduced coin operated train sets to the major shopping centres throughout Victoria, NSW and SA. We now operate and wholesale bulk vending machines and products as well as operate Chocolate, Plush Toy, Big Ball and Gumball machines.
In 2009 we bought and now own and operate Australia's largest name in vending, Scanlens. We are proud to say we are continuing to grow this bulk vending phenomenon.
We are now a one stop shop for all bulk vending products and can offer high quality stock at reasonable prices. Knowing that the end user gets terrific value for money increases product turnover and ensures repeat business for both us and our clientele.
