Hello all. New here and just looking for some info on this machine I picked up at a rummage sale. Says Continental Gum of Canada on the back. I believe it is from the early 80s. Can only find what looks to be red machines on the net. This one as can be seen by the pics is completely clear above the base. Everything except the metal mechanical bits is clear. Any ideas? Thanx!

Wow a whole month and nothing. I'm going to assume no one knows anything about this? Next question. Does anyone know anywhere that I can find out about it?

Thanx Chris. I appreciate your help. I checked out your blog and in answer to you first question, the dome is glass, the rest is plastic, the stand is metal. Thanx again!
