    Machine is in excellent condition and appears to be all original. The problem is that I have loaded it with chewing gum balls and when a coin is inserted it dumps approximately 8 - 10 balls at one time. How can I get it to only offer one ball at a time. Any information regarding this machine would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help. Ed Cadden

      I have the same gumball machine but mine has a black stand. I think what you have is a a modern reproduction that are still available for purchase online:

      http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055OR32Y?keywords=gumball%20machine&qid=1445639674&ref_=sr_1_6&sr=8-6

      There should be an adjustable plate on the internal spinning mechanism that allows you to change the size of the hole the gumball drops through, and the mechanism should only allow one ball to be loaded at a time. Maybe yours is broken or missing some parts?

      You may be able to find assistance or replacement parts via the manufacturer: http://www.greatnorthernpopcorn.com/

      A similar one is sold by the Ford Gum Co. in Akron, NY as a Carousel GumBall Machine and you can order it with a red or black stand.
