Well I finally talked a local into selling me his Suirt/Ideal55 slider, although not embossed, it's graphics are in primo shape!
It's straight, clean, & running fine, the racks missing ( I hate that every time you find a slider, the %!#@ rack's missing)  '> & it looks like the coin-return cup took a walk too, (I can't figure that one out either) & no side doorlock or coinmech lock...coinmech works fine, set for a dime, & the lids in decent shape,(hey even the wife likes it!) after inspecting it , & a small sratch-test, it appears that the Squirt-yellow is its original color, the Squirt logo is in fine shape, I suspect that the Peter-Max flowers were added in the '60's though, the serial no. seems to be in line with my other sliders from the '50's. (An Ideal 55/R.C.Cola & an Ideal 55/Nessbitts Orange.) the only other curious item is a small micro switch, mounted on a piece of masonite board, that would trigger when the loading door is opened, but there is no evaporator fan , or wiring about, because these puppys are convection cooled, ( with the evaporator coils attached to the inside of the liner walls) so maybe an attempt to install an alarm? who knows!

Good score Johnie. One of those is one of the few machines that 's on my want list. Would love to find a nice embossed one of these and I figure there has got to be few of them hanging around these parts.
