Bluebird Twirl Chute

Bluebird Products Co., Kansas City, MO, c. early 1910s, 10 ¹/₂". This is probably the earliest of the Bluebirds, and is the only one not made of aluminum. It has a painted tin body and lid, and has a distinctive curved gumball spout that gives the machine its name. It does not look like your typical Bluebird.

I've seen original versions painted black, red and black, and gold with pinstriping. Two of these color schemes are pictured above. This is a great little machine that---although not rare---is uncommon and is coveted by most collectors.

Both examples above are 100% original.
