Title: Superior Junior Variations Post by: ajf5577 on November 07, 2015, 07:39:39 pm Lonny brought up an interesting point the other day so I thought that I would look. I do have a Nugrape Superior Junior with the raised lines on the sides. This one does have the insulation insert in the lid. I compared that to a Coca Cola Superior that I have. There is also a difference in handles. My Coke has a wide plastic handle with the chrome strip in the center, where this particular Nugrape has a narrower handle. I checked another Coke Superior that I have, and it has the narrower handle. This means that, setting aside color variations, an advanced collector would need to have both handle varieties in each soda in order to claim victory, Yikes!
Btw I am still looking for OC, Dr Pepper and Dads Superior Jrs to upgrade my collection. Title: Re: Superior Junior Variations Post by: MoonDawg on November 08, 2015, 03:56:38 am I believe Ray (Mygoose) has the Dr. Pepper and Dad's you are looking for.
Title: Re: Superior Junior Variations Post by: ld26 on November 08, 2015, 05:52:58 pm would take a while to collect all the variations, ha, to add to the confusion I took a look at one of each of my versions (with and without the lines) and the handles were the same on both, weird, think they just used whatever was lying around sometimes
Title: Re: Superior Junior Variations Post by: Bigfoot on December 03, 2015, 08:58:29 am Your Coke decal cooler is in a class by itself.
They come with that wide Bakelite handle. ALL the rest,...which for the sake of this note we will call the majority of the other Superior Juniors which are almost all embossed come with the other slimmer and more architectural and "Deco" in design Bakelite handle. Which comes in 2 colors,...red and the slightly less common orange which might just be a change in the dye they used. What I mean is they might have been trying for red or had an order for red but they are orange. Hope this helps.

I have a few like that. Gonna say in the last year I have seen that wrap around type on a Coke like yours and also a Pepsi. Both were on EBay. Title: Re: Superior Junior Variations Post by: ld26 on January 08, 2016, 08:29:43 pm interesting, that one isn't mine, I pulled the pic from an ebay ad
