No problem. Also there is no lock on it, so maybe it's not the original.

I have no idea on it's history prior to the mid 60's.

It looks like the original cash box but there is a little steel plate with a lock on it that kept the cash box "safe" but still
Allowed the technicians to get into the machine and work on it. Even the back door looks original and I have a lock of two that would fit it.

These are easy to find and you machine just needs a little tlc and cleaning up and some correct parts and it will be a great
Survivor for someone's collection.

Looking for survivor machines especially vendor fronts or original side vendors with or without
a machine. 1920's-30's goosenecks, round escalators. I enjoy hand painting the castings.

Hi Viper
I sent you a personal message, but I'll mention it again here.
I also live in the Twin Cities. I might be interested in the brown front if you decide to sell.

Hi Viper:
As mentioned above, there should be No problem playing it with nickles or tokens. These machines were made to accept either.
It is a real shame that something that has been in your family for so long, has to depart, because of a space problem when moving.
Your machine is in outstanding condition for it's age, and mostly due to the excellent care it has received since coming off location,
where it obviously wasn't at for very long. From what I can see in your photo lineup, it is Totally original, and complete, with the
exception of the back door lock, of which originals are available. You may have a space issue when you move, but if this machine
was a survivor in my family, I would find a space for it 'right-quick', as I know you will be very sorry in the years to come, should
you choose to let go of it. So, let your 'second thoughts' be your guide. #-o
