EZ BASEBALL "GUM" MACHINE A rare "Ball Gum" machine by the Ad Lee Company of Chicago (patented Sept. 5, 1908) It consists of a cast metal base and large glass dome containing gum balls and a decal label stating Have you tried the EZ machine? Interesting and worth your while - only 5 cents - every ball of gum has a printed number inside ... The metal holder on top holds the original cardboard which lists the money prizes to be won and pictures a baseball player. The machine was actually a gambling device like a punch board. The "gum balls" were small balls containing a paper slip. If the slip matched a play on the card, the person won cash money.
