You’ll be able to see an actual Automat machine at our new exhibition, Lunch Hour NYC, opening June 22!!
Automat, 977 Eighth Avenue, Manhattan. by New York Public Library on Flickr.
Man takes pie out of Automat, stone counters and walls below metal and glass display.
—- I do believe it’s the Strategic Pie Reserve!
On the other side of the wall was a kitchen. These were like giant vending machines except everything was MUCH fresher...
Automats are more awesome than…anything. I’d love...one in person! If you haven’t seen...
It saddens me to live in a world without pie machines.
Yup, I remember automat machines…
there were still a few of these around when i was a kid. the gadgetry was better than the pie.
Oh my god this opens on my birthday, perfect!
Talk about a blast from the past. Read about it, heard about it, and now we’ve got a chance to see it.
