Ebay would have been a better place for them to get rid of that stuff. A lot of very nice stuff but the vast majority was WAY overpriced.

The lady that sold/auctioned the stuff is one of 5 daughters of the former/last owner of the Linton, IN Coca-Cola Bottling plant. All of his stuff was divided up between the daughters and this particular one decided to sell her share. Pettreti's and Ebay were their two main sources for pricing information.

I ended up picking up a 50's Coca-Cola Ashtray, a Shopping Cart 2 bottle holder a couple of keychains and a Coca-Cola Fishtail menuboard that was used at the bottling plant.

It was great to get a chance to meet another SMC'er! Thanks for the breakfast Leonard!

Here's a picture of the menuboard. Not perfect, has a small notch out of the upper left hand side and has a few scratches but definitely displays well.

I have a few menu boards but not that one. I like it.
