    Y'all know the ones -- often found in pizza restaurants too, the big glass box half-full of stuffed animals (and/or the errant unattended child every so often) which you feed quarters into for the chance to maneuver a crane/claw-thing above them around with a joystick, in hopes of picking up any one of 'em with it for less than $5/$10 worth of coins, so your own kid will quit screaming for it...? <lol>

    This coin door assembly came from one of those machines, likely 1980's vintage. (which had been stored very badly, thus most of its particleboard cabinet was well on its way back to being more 'particle' than 'board', no matter that...) It is complete with its coin acceptors and all its hardware intact (and amazingly corrosion-free, considering the rest of the thing) as salvaged from the machine. It measures about 8" x 11".
