I don’t know the history of this gum ball machine but I can tell you it’s another amazing item and I made a bee-line for this machine on my first trip to WW. I love rockets and love the detail such as the incredible “red fins” and the mini porthole windows lining the body of it.
Northwestern Saturn 2000 and I have no idea what that means or what it may stand for. This would look fabulous in my house.
I’m wondering if that 1 penny would get you 1 gum ball or 2?
Absolutely beautiful. All gum ball machines should be this fantastic looking.

The gumball machine is 1950’s and works perfectly. A glass of pennies sits right next to it so gumballs are always available. 1 penny = 1 gumball.

I’m very respectful when at “Willis Wonderland” and get a bit hesitant at times in trying something out or opening a cabinet etc. If I would have known, I would have happily deposited several pennys as I had dry mouth from the excitement of being in that room!

Absolutely fantastic. I’m so jealous.

This is one of two rocketship gumball machines I have. The other one is at least three times as wide around. I keep it in my storage garage because it’s so unwieldy (but gorgeous!).

Honestly, you’re going to need about a pound of Valium for that.

I can bring along an oxygen tank if that will work?

Worthy of a star on Hollywood Blvd. for this award winning kitsch assembly under one roof? They would have to create a whole new catagory.
