ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a coin-operated newspaper vending machine that is designed to prevent direct access to the newspaper-storage compartment by means of a door that includes a newspaper-display compartment. A multiplicity of stack newspapers are stored within the storage compartment defined in the vending-machine housing and are supported on a floating shelf that aligns the uppermost newspaper with a newspaper-dispensing device that includes a paper dispensing carriage on which is mounted a feeder plate aligned to engage and dispense the uppermost-positioned newspaper through a discharge chute formed in the door of the vending machine. The newspaper-display compartment is adapted to dispense the displayed newspaper stored therein after all of the newspapers stored in the storage compartment have been dispensed.
