Kinch Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Needs a little TLC and new locks but seems solid. Is it an Oak? Has glass globes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravo Duck Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Those are oak Astros with clutch handles. The best thing about them is the bodies interchange with Beavers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again If I were a betting man I would say 60's - 70's time frame. Do you have a photo of the back of the globes and product wheels? These would look great powder coated back to there original blue. Edited June 22, 2018 by shvending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumball guy Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Those Astros are a version of the Oak Acorn machine. I have added a link to a post T-Bird Johnny posted back in 2010 about the history of Oak Vending machines. Interesting read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
