So many cool items here -- I'm partial to the Hal Chase glove, Reds posters, the Hank Aaron poster and of course the Oak's card machine. I use a lot of card machines to complement the collection -- here's a sampling --

Fabulous items and spectacular displays.

It can also be fun to look for non-baseball items to complement cards, pins and other BB memorabilia. I just picked up this shoelaces service station to go with a pair of Rabbit Maranville cleats, the large white wooden sign advertising postcards and photos is something I bought at a flea market and put baseball postcards on, the vintage wood lathe makes for a great display for an early hand turned Lajoie bat, and I use a 60s drinking cart to display baseball glasses.

Very nice collection of Baseball Card Vending Machines.
Did you purchase the 3 matching wooden ones as a set or just lucky to find 3 of them? Jerry Sage |

Thanks for all the kind words guys.
Jerry -- that large machine is made up of three pieces that are connected and meant to be together as one. It came out of an amusement park on Long Island and then stood inside a Cooperstown business for many years before I was able to purchase it. I actually had one other that was made the exact same way -- three pieces together as one. Bob -- I've just always had a real thing for card machines and for years I bought them whenever I could find them. I haven't picked up a new one in quite awhile. I've got a few others that I can try to post over the weekend. Greg |

Greg - The triples are Great items! You were very fortunate to get two.
I also was a big card machine "guy". Had several ESCO's - wood and metal also many Premiere card/gumball machines. Liked the way they all complemented my game used baseball collection. Only have one left - Premiere never been used. Happy New Year Jerry Sage |

That's a beauty Jerry in a terrific looking room!
I seem to recall a photo from years ago showing all your machines lined up in a row -- one of the coolest display photos I ever saw. Greg |
