Description :

Early 20th Century “Win-A-Cig” Cigarette Trade Stimulator Machine

A countertop arcade-style cigarette dispenser from the early to mid-20th century, likely dating to the 1930s–1950s. The machine is housed in a wooden cabinet with a front glass display showing a yellow playfield marked with the name “WIN-A-CIG.” Players insert a coin to release a ball, which rolls along a metal track toward one of several labeled slots. A winning slot dispenses a cigarette when the knob is turned. The unit includes a coin slot, metal crank, ball chute, and payout mechanism. Internal levers and rods are visible behind the rear panel, showing the mechanical operation.

Dimensions:
25" H x 20.5" W x 8" D
