picked up a couple 33's this weekend, I think these are really cool...The embossed is complete, runs and vends nicely, the generic has a frayed cord I have to replace to test it out, I really like the patina on the embossed one, anybody have any advice on how to treat it to prevent it the rust from getting any worse?

Nice score.

I am sure some of the more experienced members on here will have some recommendations for rust control and preservation.

I would look under that sign I bet that's embossed also. Just a thought.

thought about that, its not held on with screws though, not sure if I would be able to get it on nicely again if I took it off, man that would be crazy if they covered up the nice embossing with that sign,

I'll play with it when I have some free time, maybe can get it off without doing any damage...

Does the tag say 3D-33? Is it original blue paint?

The reason I was asking was because the 3D-33's were embossed for Pepsi so they couldn't be repainted and used by Coke. I had always believed the reason for the sign was to do nothing more than update the look for the early 60's.

I assume the embossed is a 3D-33?
