Review
"This is the first ever book on the advent of the all-pervasive coin machine. Illustrated throughout in colour and black and white, Nic Costa reveals how the coin machine entered our world by ingenuity, invention and guile, from its origins in late Victorian society through to the twentieth century." Joyland Books
"I was recommended this book...when I started collecting just three years ago and how right... It gives a good insight into coin operated machines from the early years. Whilst it does have pictures, it is mostly text and, as such, deals with mainly the history side of mechanical machines. An absolute must buy, in my opinion." 13rebel
