In this embodiment, a cigarette dummy box used as a sample in a cigarette vending machine will be described as an example of a vending machine dummy case. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the case body 12 and the pressing body 14 of the cigarette dummy box 10 are formed of transparent plastic. The label body 16 on which the brand name and the like of the tobacco sandwiched between the case body 12 and the pressing body 14 is printed is formed of a thin film sheet. The case body 12 is formed in a box shape, and a back opening 18 is formed on the back. A bottom opening 20 is formed in the bottom of the case body 12. Therefore, the case body 12 is formed with a front plate 22, a top plate 24, and side plates 26 and 28. Further, guide grooves 26A, 28A are formed on the inner side surfaces of the side plate portions 26, 28 along the vertical direction of the case body 12. The pressing body 14 is inserted into the inside of the case body 12 through the bottom opening 20 of the case body 12. The pressing body 14 is formed with a front plate 32, a top plate 34, side plates 36 and 38, and a bottom plate 40. On the outer surfaces of the side plates 36 and 38, linear guide projections 36A and 38A which enter the guide grooves 26A and 28A are formed so as to protrude in the vertical direction of the pressing body 14. A knob 42 is formed between the top plate 34 and the bottom plate 40. On the front portion 44 of the label body 16 which is held between the case body 12 and the pressing body 14, a brand or a mark of a cigarette is printed. The label 16 has a top surface 46 and side surfaces 48 and 50 continuously formed. A top surface folded portion 46A and side surface folded portions 48A, 50A are continuously formed on the top surface portion 46 and the side surface portions 48, 50, respectively.
