Title: Jacobs 35
Post by: on May 09, 2002, 06:21:05 pm
I just picked up this Jacobs 35 and was wondering what the value of it is.  It is a complete, functioning machine with no rust.  There are some character marks, but overall I would rate it an 8.5.  It has been stored inside for the last 25-30 years.  Any information on this machine would be appreciated.

jeakle4,

Looks like a very clean machine...
Would you be interested in sharing a good photo for use in our Soda Machines Section since we don't have a good image of a Jacobs 35? If so, could you take the picture from the front but slightly to the side so one side can be seen. Also, attempt to take the photo from the same height as the machine so the image doesn't appear to be looking downward.

Thanks!!! :)

That looks nice! As with any machine that isn't sold frequently, it's difficult to pin a price on it. It looks pretty close to a Jacobs 26 in construction and function, assuming there isn't something that really sets it above one of those I'd guess it's worth $1300 - $1800.

It'd be worth more if you clean out all the wiener-dogs out of it! :D
