This sweets vending machine equipped with a projector and a turntable! This would have been one of the fanciest machines of 1931. I do not know if one has survived, but a reproduction exists at グリコ 江崎記念館 (Glico Ezaki Memorial Museum). This would have been one of the fanciest coin machines of its era. I have not found a note about who made the machine, but since it was made for Ezaki Glico we are listing their company name.
Some blog entries from people who visited the museum:

At the 2:15 mark in this video we get to see the machine operate, and look inside.
the reproduction does not operate like the original. This appears to be an LCD screen. |
Candy dispensed! In the video we also see change fall out. Real change mechanisms came far after 1931. |
The machine appears in some illustrated advertisements:
