| Additional Information | Penny King gumball machines are antiques that were small and designed to sit on a countertop. They typically had a body made from cast aluminum and a globe made from glass. For just one cent, they dispensed pin-back buttons as prizes during the mid-twentieth century. Buttons that read "Quit Your Kiddin'," "Hot Dogs," and "Let's Get Acquainted" were just some of that could be collected from these machines. |
