Wanted: Automaticket Ticket Machine\Dispenser

posted by adkemp on June 20, 2007 at 3:40 pm

ITHACA, NY — I am working on the restoration of the ticket booth for the Temple Theatre. There originally was a 2 lane lever-operated ticket machine/dispenser which has gone missing.

Please contact me if you come across an extra machine (in any condition) during your restoration, sale, or closing.

Thanks!

In case nobody responds to your ad, try placing one in Boxoffice Magazine.

Good Luck.

Oops…sorry about that. I do know that the theater I am working on purchasing does indeed have 2 of these machines you’re talking about. One is still in use and the other is a backup that is in storage but never used….both are from the early 1940s.

I have one that dispenses 3 tickets. It came from the Prince Theater in Ault, CO. It works fine. I’ve had it for years and would like to finally sell it. I came across this site as I was looking for the value of the antique prior to placing it on ebay.

Call me if you’re interested.

Hi, I came across this page as I was looking for a ticket machine for our historic theatre. We have one but it is not functioning properly. I noticed that there is someone else looking for a ticket machine as well as several others who have one to sell. If anyone still has a historic ticket machine that they are interested in selling, please leave a comment or contact me at the theatre at 505-726-0050. Thanks!

I have recently begun to dig things out of storage from one of our older theatres and have a General Register Corporation “Automaticket Register” It is in fair condition and still works. I tore it apart to clean it, and put it up for sale. If anyone has any questions you can call or text me Anthony, 315-440-2188. Happy Hunting all!
