Other Vendors

Besides gum, candy, peanuts, and matches, vendors existed to sell cigarettes, cigars, postcards, collar buttons, apples, sandwiches, lighter fluid, pencils, perfume, aspirin, prophylactics, razor blades, soap and towel packets, stamps, combs, Dixie cups, lotion, sanitary napkins, and toilet paper . . . . . and probably a few other things I can't think of right now. The categories below are close to, but not always, those defined by Mr. Enes in Silent Salesmen Too and include only those for which I have something to show. As with the other pages, click on the name of a machine to learn more about it.
