Vintage Stoner Model 120 Candy Vending Machine
Late 1940s Stoner Model 120 Candy Vending Machine — Original, Unrestored
This is a genuine piece of postwar American commercial history. The Stoner Model 120 was a fixture of theaters, gas stations, factories, and five-and-dimes across the country in the late 1940s and 1950s — and this example survives in solid original condition with beautiful, honest patina. No restoration, no repaint. Just the real thing.
Manufactured by Stoner Manufacturing Corp. of Aurora, Illinois — one of the premier coin-op machine makers of the era — the Model 120 is increasingly hard to find complete and intact. This one is.
