I recently purchased an unusual Mills Castle Front serial # V433132 stamped in the upper casting and #433132 on the inside tag. This machine is very different as the lower Castle casting has no jackpot, casting part # MLB 5948. This is a side vending machine with future pay bonnet and the award card has a picture of PIONEER mints and at the top says TYPE "12" Confections Vender. The machine is all original, been sitting in the humid Florida air so the paint is about 95% gone and the castings have that powdery look to them. There is enough of the original paint to restore and paint the original colors in which this Castle Front was predominantly dark red.
I am curious if any one has ever seen this model ? or knows anything about it ?
Thanks,
Bill
