My uncle bought one.  I noticed that this site said that Quikold didnt make a Coca-Cola Cooler.  What gives?  Did they paint over another one?  It looks very similar to the ones for Dr. Pepper and 7-Up that the site has picture for.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

From what I've seen, heard and read.... Quikold made coolers for everybody else but Coke.
I've seen embossed Double Cola, Cleo Cola, Crush, Grapette, Dr. Pepper, Pepsi and 7up
etc, etc. everything but Coke.
They where the answer to Westinghouse for the “Other” brands.

Post a picture when you can.

Hmmmmmm... It's not a decal or handpainted... Maybe Local Coca-Cola  Bottler there got the
green light to get a few Quikolds screened with their logo... It looks like the real thing. Never know
stuff turns up all the time..... Nice cooler. Looks late fifties more squared off wish they would have had
them embossed but who knows... you may come across one.

I am from the Longview-Tyler area.  I am new to this cooler stuff.  My uncle found the one I put the pics of up, and I got to looking around to see what it was about.  Good to hear from a fellow Texan.
