Second hand book vending machine
By Jonathan O'Connor on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
Wow. This is clever. A second-hand bookshop called Monkey’s Paw, in Toronto, Canada has created a vending machine which gives customers a random book, at $2 a time.
Owner Stephen Fowler came up with the idea, before designer Craig Small brought it to life, utilising an old locker and a suitably retro design.
The ‘Biblio-mat’ is described as “an artful alternative to the ubiquitous and often ignored discount sidewalk bin” and has been a hit with customers.
