TCW Podcast Episode 183 - A Working Model of Vending   The arcade industry had many influences. From traveling fairs, clockmakers, and more. Eventually, with the invention of putting a coin-activated door on tobacco boxes in bars, the idea inspired others to make coin-operated vending machines and cast iron banks that were marked as toys but were used for gambling in bars. This is a deep dive into where the coin-op industry came from and we can see some of these influences that carried on to the modern day.   Penny-in-the-Slot Automata and the Working Model: https://www.amazon.com/Penny-Slot-Automata-Working-Model/dp/0709074085 Glockenspiel in Munich: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsfxTyhCzr8 Cuckoo Clocks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6lCQvEUf-U Lost art of Automatons alive again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7oSFNKIlaM HUGO Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG9rvNhdOX8 Revolutions S3: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/484J9T0QdvFdlaq5M5tUcs Exposition des Produits de I'industrie Française: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposition_des_produits_de_l%27industrie_fran%C3%A7aise Virtual Tour of the Great Exhibition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSlP6jQLPwI The Surprising History of Vending Machines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6lxjx4ZzBM 10 Church Bell Cover Songs: https://www.readersdigest.co.uk/culture/music/10-incredible-church-bell-cover-songs The Penny Arcade - The Working Model: https://penny-arcade.info/working-models Penny Cast Iron Bear and Indian Bank: https://www.pbs.org/video/antiques-roadshow-appraisal-cast-iron-penny-bank-ca-1900/ Horse Race Mechanical Bank: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLSN3MTEDP0   TCW 007 - History of the Arcade: http://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/history-of-the-arcade/   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: [email protected]  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.
