Icy O Counter top

I picked this one up last week, I am still pinching myself on this one! This rare cooler was found in a basement of a Coca Cola Bottling plant in Reidsville, NC about 20-25 years ago, It was found still in the original Shipping crate. The damp basement did not help it much but still a very nice solid old cooler. Inside was a original paper window sign that the store owner would place in the front window of their store to let everyone know about ice cold drinks! The crate is no longer with it, but it is still attached to two skids from the original crate. Up until owning this machine I had only laid my eyes on one other and that one was in the Schmidt Museum.
I was able to buy this last week off a couple, her father is the one who found it and has now passed. A good friend was able to meet them on route to the Dixie Gas show and hand deliver it to me there.

I'm amazed at how much color is still on it and how visible all the lettering is.
