Comments
The Vendo 23 came in two versions: The Standard, like the one pictured, has a red top and the Deluxe model has a silver top. Another difference between the two versions is the Deluxe model has an embossed "Coca-Cola" logo on the front where as the Standard version is painted on. Many people refer to the V-23 and other models like it as a "Spin Top" because the circular section of the top spins to to the next available bottle of soda. Other "Spin Tops" include but are not limited to the Vendo V-59 , Vendo Junior , Vendo V-39 Standard and the Vendo V-39 Master . Due to low manufacturing costs, the V-23 can be readily found and isn't considered highly collectible. These machines can still be purchased at reasonable prices.
