Rare 1938 Disney “Mickey Mouse and His Pals” Hamilton Enterprises Penny Gumball Machine

This beautiful 15” tall gumball machine was made by Hamilton Enterprises, Inc. in Kansas City, Missouri over 85 years ago. The machine is in wonderful working condition. All parts are original and there is no unusual wear or marring. 

The glass bowl, top, and heavy enameled cast iron base show well. The wrap-around colorful Mickey Mouse and Friends decal wrapped around the glass globe displaying characters like Goofy, Donald, Minny, Pluto and Mickey is virtually flawless. 

The coin mechanism worked extremely well when tested and the bright shiny gumball catch flap embossed with the Hamilton name makes this machine special. The key is present as is the locking lid. This machine is about as good as it gets.
