    Default cool vintage ball counter

    looks like you push one lever or the other for 10 or 50 balls.

    if it weren't cast iron, and heavy, I would consider bidding.

    Ball Vender, but very cool! Very very retro, I'm sure from the single shot days.

    15kg - 33 pounds, looks like the top part comes off pretty easy, as well as the 'nozzle', could ship in two boxes.

    No, it does it for you. It looks like that wood part at the top might be added by the parlor people. Probably also missing the lid. Like those round ones, this sits at the counter, you pay your money and hold out your hands (not sure when trays came along) and then went and played your game. If you ran out, I assume you had to go back for more. I think the wins were low enough in those days that they were counted with counting trays - like 100 will fit perfectly on one, it's dumped and the next 100 are counted.


    I'm sure you noticed the cool "Vegas" he's got too? I noticed he says it weighs a 1kg more than the ball vender.
