Title: coke button
Post by: 64 ragtop on June 14, 2010, 04:13:49 pm
I'm looking for a 36" or 48" coke button. I've looked on ebay but prices seem to be unusally high or the buttons are in really bad shape. Anybody know of any for sale?

It took me a couple of years to find a deal on a larger button.  Keep looking, one will turn up--but you are right, they generaly go for big bucks if they are in good shape.

I saw one on American Pickers last night that had seen better days but would have looked good on my garden wall..

I saw that one too on American Pickers, it was big maybe 48" but really rusty.

It kind of odd, it only been a few months since I got my first coke machine, and yet now when I watch TV, movies etc, I find myself  looking  to see if I can spot  anything that's vintage coke.    Must get in your blood. LOL

Does anyone know the years they made the original coke buttons and what sizes the came in?

Pretty much 12", 16", 24", 36" and 48".  They span many years.
