The "Pok-O-Reel" in question, appears to be a nice original non-gum model, with excellent strips & card.
A good amount of the original paint is also present. I would not restore it. Only wash and highlight the
case castings. Only downfall, is the missing back door. The small break in the underside of the base, is
not a big deal either, as it is minimal, and still holding. Hope this sells to a good home, and doesn't end
up in the LV Butchers grimy paws. Good luck with your sale.

Posted: Sun Nov 16, 2014 12:20 amI think I have the link fixed. Sorry about that.
I hope it sells too. I've been hanging onto this for over twenty years. Near had any thought of restoring it. Just vacuum it out once in a while and dust the surface. I'm amazed that it works so well after all these years.
Getting kinda nervous with the auction. Still no bids. Surprising since I've seen non-working machines sell for quite a bit.
Anyone have suggestions on where else I can promote this auction?
