Title: Another Westinhouse Reproduction Cooler, WD12??
Post by: SIGNGUY on February 01, 2012, 10:54:44 am
Never knew they reproduced this cooler ... looks like a WD 12 Westinhouse and the seller even says its a reproduction.. doesn't look embossed and looks cheaply made... never knew they made this style too... obviously have seen the jr's... any one else?

       Certainly not embossed on the sides and does have that "new" look to it.

       I just can't imagine anyone reproducing this cooler with literally thousands of them still in existence. Plus no one even wants them, restored or not, because of the amount of floor space they consume. This one's got me stumped, thanks John.

I agree.  I have never seen or heard of it before.  Could it have been manufactured and sold overseas???


BC

Wow! Never seen one of these. Well I see something new everyday. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. These days you can buy a brand new 1957 Chevy, 1969 Camaro, or 1968 Mustang Fastback.
