Univendor One-Cent Fresh Gum Vendor
Here is a neat little gum machine we restored. Many years ago we purchased about 20 of these in various conditions and restored 4 or 5 of them. It is a Stoner/Univendor one-cent fresh gum vendor. They were designed to bolt onto the side of a larger Stoner candy machine. It dispensed a single piece of gum and had separate chutes for different flavors.

We aren’t able to give estimates on the value of an item. If you keep an eye on Ebay or maybe Craig’s List, your item is sure to be listed at some point. That may give you a rough idea of it’s value but keep in mind to compare apples to apples. Prices vary greatly depending on condition. If anyone can help with a value of this item please blog in.

John,
Keep searching on ebay and Craig’s list. Your machine is sure to turn up sometime. Also, just try searching the internet for sites and dealers that retore/sell these great machines.

Hi! Just came into possession of one of these machines. Planning a restore, but having some small issues with the locking mechanism. Maybe you can offer some advice? E-mail if possible.

I had tons of machines at one time and out of them I kept the oldest and the ones I thought were of the most value. I have a couple machines without keys. In trying to get these machines unlocked, I enlisted the services of a locksmith. In any event, most vending machine locks have a number on them, well the ones taking the hollow keys. If you see a number listed on it, most generally, you can get a key made by producing the number.

This gum machine does have the styling of Stoner Brand machines. The knobs look like Stoner knobs. It does look similar to my larger Univendor (Candy, Gum, and Mint) Stoner machine. It has the coloring of my Stoner Junior machine.
