From 1901-1985, the Chicago-based Exhibit Supply Company-- shortened to "EX. SUP. CO. CHGO." on many of their cards-- manufactured arcade vending machines that dispensed different series of postcard-sized souvenirs. Typically the card dispensing machines were found in penny arcades, shooting galleries, drug stores, pool rooms, cigar stores, ice cream parlors, etc.-- i.e. anywhere you could park a vending machine.
