Hello, I am the set designer and stage director at Barberton Hogh School in Ohio. We are doing the musical “How To Succeed In Businees” this year and I am looking for a picture of a late 50’s early 60’s coffee vending machine. Anything you can send me would be great.

I have an original 1948 Kwik Kafe Vending machine that took a nickel for a hot cup of fresh coffee. I am interested in selling this unit. Please e-mail for pictures & info.

I was an engineer at The Bert Mills Corp. from Feb. 1952 until J. P. Seeburg bought the company.
I might have some answers for you.

I have an vintage coffee vending machine, it appears to be from the 50’s the VIN information has been removed. By the looks of the coin accepter it’s the same one that was used on my Stoner candy machine. If anyone knows about this machine and would like some photos let me know.

I have a old coffee machine. It is called the coffee bar manufactured by the bert mills company of lombard illinois model 200. We believe this to be from the 1950s. Also it has a dial on the front to choose black coffee,with sugar, cream, and cream and sugar. These are its only selections and a vend price of 5 cents. Does anyone know anything about this?
