Anyone ever see one before. It is NOT a Westinghouse with the coke letters smashed in and bodywork done over. This is factory built. Who made it?

Measures 20" long minus the handles, 15" Wide, and 17 1/4 tall minus the top handle

Pictured next to a Coke 6 pack cooler for comparison.











Thanks!

Gonna hold off for now Pat, I may have stumbled onto something good......


I have been researching this cooler today. I took this pic while at the Schmidt Coke Museum



I then found the auction results for the auction and found this link.

http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/9686243

After looking over my cooler today the legs and the lid were originally black, The body was a off white color. It was painted over to what looks like me Latex paint. I am going to try and safely remove the latex paint to see what is underneath.

Wow, that handle looks exactly the same. The ridge line around the face looks the same too and it extends right down through the legs. Interesting...

This looks just like it except it looks a little smaller.  It does have the same drain spigot on bottom though. They also don't know the manufacturer.

It very well could be the same thing? I think the large Coca Cola script makes it look smaller.
