Revised: 11/21/2009

Additional Information: There are a few minor spots of touch-up to the porcelain.

TALL CASED PORCELAIN PULVER “YELLOW KID” GUM MACHINE. An earlier version, circa 1910-1920 of a Pulver clockwork gum machine. These machines came with various figures including Uncle Sam, Foxy Grandpa, Happy Hooligan but this particular version has the Yellow Kid inside. Dual column gum vendor, which was an improvement of the earlier wood version that featured a single column. Often times the earlier version necessitated the merchant to replenish the gum more frequently thus the new and improved two column version became more popular by having twice as much gum available, but also two different flavors. Upon depositing a penny, the Yellow Kid would turn and depending on which slot you placed the penny in, the consumer decided his choice of gum. The sides as well as two of the front panels are handsomely enameled in bright red porcelain with white lettering. Interior contains several original paper labels with directions for loading gum, replacing glass or exchanging machine for another. Machine still retains its original wood mounting board. SIZE: 10″ w x 6″ d x 24″ t. CONDITION: Overall condition of porcelain is very good. Steel cabinet has been repainted as well as interior mechanism and Yellow Kid figure. 1-9477 (2,000-3,000)
