I was looking through Craigslist and found this for a mere $85.00.

It is near perfect.

Nice find! I'd like to own one of those - the bigger coolers get kind of heavy when full.

I believe that Low Boy is the new cooler that come with the Yellow Coke Pedal Cars
The originals didn't have the embossed® below the logo and the Font on “DRINK” is different.
Still a great find and great price.

I didn't know they reproduced these. Same dimensions as the A-1 but shorter. So you may be right. And it looks too nice to be an original, there is something about the lettering. Anyway, I am still happy with the find.

They came in the back of a little wagon with the pedal cars... Can't remember if the cars were embossed too.
they are well made...like the little six pack coolers... the ® gives them away as they aren't dated...
They ask a lot more on ebay and other sites for that cooler so you did good...
My son wants one of those little Frostie six packs as root beer is his favorite soda....

Yep! The "R" gives it away.

Thanks
