description:  A small table/bar top machine with aluminum body and top.  Small glass globe with decal.  A tray underneath the machine would catch the peanuts.

information:  Manufactured in 1947, "This machine is a 5¢ tray-type bulk vendor.  The optional tray was badly needed for stability but its plating was very thin and it rusted easily."  It is believed that the Atlas company may have manufactured this model for other companies as well.
