I have only ever seen one cigarette vending machine in Korea. In Japan there are more cigarette vending machines than pieces of litter on the street. It's paradise!

Our cigarette vending machines in Montreal were outlawed on May 31.

i saw my first cigarette vending machine in a garishly under-lit, loudly patterned casino hallway in either reno or las vegas and it looked similar to this one. i was fascinated, and thought it was much more interesting than a slot machine...

great shot.

I wonder if Jeff has any shots of Japan's famous sidewalk beer vending machines.

chiamattt, do they have them in Korea as well?

joey, it looks like you are sporting a moustache, but I cannot tell if there is a beard as well. If it is just a moustache, I seem to be reminded of Jim Carrey in "Me, Myself and Irene". If there is a beard as well, I am reminded of Carl Wilson of the Beach Boys, circa 1976.

Cleveland is full of old beauties like that one. Thanks for the post!

Nice to see you Joey! and a nice shot. I almost want a pack of Lucky Strikes.

evilg - i'm a beach boy. daddy took the t-bird, and my goatee is hidden by the camera.
jon - this is at maxi's on mayfield rd. little italy. more cleveland photos to come.
mr. ghost - is that rocky colavito you refernece in your name? he was my hero.
catherine - the luckys strikes were sold out

I see the Marlboro boxes were sold out as well. Only soft packs left. I wonder why the Marlboro box smokes are 82.5mm long, and the soft pack ones are the standard king size of 85mm? And regular Canadian smokes are 70mm.

joey-you guessed it! my name is really a reference to the curse that rocky left when the tribe traded him away.

i was too young to realize rocky was a controversy. at one point i was in the buddy bell fan club. when buddy played 3rd base for the tribe.
