VINTAGE JOHNSON FARE BOX Milwaukee Trolley 5-Tube Fare Box RARE/NICE CONDITION

Description

Here's a bit of Americana from the Milwaukee Trolley from the 1940-1950s era.
We are selling several lots of collectibles for a client whose father was a Milwaukee policeman in the 1950's and who also worked at the Milwaukee Trolley. .  This is a change machine / coin dispenser from that era. The item was manufactured by the Johnson Fare Box Co of Chicago Ill, and the patent number on this 1465409.  This is a five tube dispenser, though it can be separated into two pieces, one a three tube the other a two tube (see last photo) 3 of the 5 mechanisms that dispense change are working fine; two appear stuck, though I don't imagine that it is a serious issue.  I think that someone who knows these items will be able to easily fix it.
