Hi guys, I am starting this thread to list vintage Coke machine models seen in movies, tv, etc. I thought of this while I was Googling "Coke Machine" images and stumbled across some video captures (still photos) from the old Monkees movie, "Head". Now I'm not a Monkees fan (though I enjoyed the show when I was a little kid) and have never seen that movie, but I thought it was cool that (according to the stills) there was a scene inwhich Mickey is dying of thirst in the desert and stumbles upon a Vendo 144, to which it looks like he can't get a Coke.
There are about 4 stills here: http://www.monkee-mania.com/Head/HeadPics1.html
Here's one of them:
Please add any fun media sightings. This could be fun!

O.k., then I guess I will go it alone. This next one wasn't a vintage machine, but:
In the film, "21 Grams", fledgling caddy Benicio Del Toro gets fired after dropping some golf clubs in front of a Coke machine. The man who fires him then offers to buy him a Diet Coke.

Great contribution Bob! I really appreciate it! Maybe you could play it again, pause it and take a digital photo of the screen?

Devil With a Blue Dress starring Denzel Washington has a Vendo 39 and a Westinghouse Master. Tucker you catch a image of a Vendo 83 in a gas station Back to the Future Michael J. Fox stops to enjoy a bottle of Pepsi from a Pespi Jacobs but needs help finding how to open it. There was a contest years back in Club Soda on naming movies and shows that used a cooler or machine. and at the time I knew of 12 and I didn't even win. Movies you'd think would like American Graffiti didn't:(
And of course there was the Superbowl Commercial Last year with the Vendo 81 Coke and 81 Pepsi.

PUNCHLINE with Tom Hanks and Sally Field has a Cavalier 72 throughout the movie. LOVE FIELD with Michelle Pfeifer and Denzel Washington. A Cavalier 96 is in the bus station and a huge Coca Cola porcelin sign outside. Their car breaks down in a small forgotten town and two machines on the porch of the old store One entire episode of Married with Children is filmed in front of an early model 39.

Speaking of 72 . In the movie Nell with Jodi Foster there's a 72 in a general store and the old TV show Chico and the man they had a 72 at the garage.

Ah, "Chico and the Man", that sure takes me back. Did "Sanford & Son" ever have one?
