What's the story behind the MARCH calendar page? That's an unusual (to me anyway) bottle rack on that Victor cooler. I guess that's what it is? Anyway, the MARCH machine is awesome!!

It's a rare proto type machine made by Victor. From what Joe told me the grandson of the guy who use to own the Victor Co. brought this to Joe to restore. I don't think we will find any of these out in the wild. This is a one of one that the grandson wants to keep in the family.

Is that a bottle rack or something else on the side? It looks sharp, all the chrome as opposed to the wire we are used to seeing.

What is the purpose of the rack being hinged? Cleaning behind?
