One of the first Carousel Industries candy dispensers. In good and fully working condition with coins. The size of the accepted coins depends on the type. I tried with 5 cents and it works perfectly. It has a couple of small surface scratches on the right side, as shown in photos. The Carousel gumball dispenser was originally created in the 1950s by Arthur Gold, who founded the Carousel Industries. In the 1980s, the brand was bought by Ford Gum & Machine Co. This is one of the 100% original pieces before the sale to Ford Gum. It is certified by the several labels and the fact the production year is missing on top of the Carousel brand (it will be added only in the 1980s). Accurate packaging and tracked shipping.
