information: This machine was manufactured for Hart Gum operators by  H. K. Hart Confections Co., Inc. Hart Gum was the franchised division while the same machine by Hart carried the Brookside name of the non-licensed operator side of the company. This machine is very similar to a Ford Gum machine. That’s because owner Herman Hart was once Ford’s comptroller.

accessories:  Lock and key.
