Lester-Ware Gold / Bronze counter top cigarette vending machine dispenser from the 50’s. This dispenser was used to advertise and sell Cigarettes (often Lucky Strikes); coins can be dropped into the slot under the lever. But a cigarette can be dispensed without the coins so it would have to be on the honor system. You might of found this machine sitting at your local small town bar back in the 50’s. The door on top of the back opens to load the cigarettes. The back of the dispenser comes off by removing the screw for coin removal. It measures approximately 6 1/8″H x 4″W x 1 3/4D. It is in wonderful shape, but it does show its age a little with some oxidation on the nickle back, lever, and cigarette gate. It is in otherwise immaculate condition.
