Sorry did not enter any more last night I was tired 3AM till midnight is a long day :Oo:. It was really great meeting Leonard, and like Leonard said we have been talking for over a yr on the phone but it was good to finally put a face with a voice and set there and visit, which was hard too do because of his outstanding Coca Cola Clock Collection and just some of the other cool things he has WOW!! there was alot of cool stuff. And it was great just to meet a good friend if we lived it would be trouble :laugh: :laugh:. And Just so you guys know Leonards Delf is getting restore for Leonard , the Vendo 81 (restored one) has been sold & same with the other vendo 81. And Leonard I should have had two burgers those were good :smile:.

That one ( Yellow in the pictures) is the Delf-122/dual flavor vendor, you can see the three-flavor version (Delf-159/triple in Jeff Walters soda-machine 3rd edition book page 281, although it doesn't state it in the book, it's a very uncommon machine in the 159/triple, let alone the 122/dual. The trip was a lot of fun, & I've had an adversity to having my picture taken since I was a little guy, my mom was probably frightened by an Eastman Kodak dealer or something I guess... :tounge: Title: Re: A trip to Cincinnati Post by: Jim on April 17, 2011, 07:27:44 pm Quote That one ( Yellow in the pictures) is the Delf-126/dual flavor vendor Johnie,Is this a 126 or 122...? I think Leonard told me the tag states 122; can you verify since I may have inaccurate info...? Thanks Title: Re: A trip to Cincinnati Post by: Ltransam on April 17, 2011, 08:45:30 pm Jim , Everything I have Says 122 .BUT now its Up to Pat To Confirm >I have Talked to Him & He WILL get back to you .

Leonard Jim as Leonard has said I will let you know in a week or so. :smile: And next time I'm down there I'll plan on staying a day so we can share war stories :smile:. ( Not war dept. stories :laugh: ) Title: Re: A trip to Cincinnati Post by: SIGNGUY on April 18, 2011, 02:50:41 pm It's sooo cool that Pat and Johnnie are close enought Geographically that they can do road trips and stuff like this together.. I have made many great friends on this site as well and it's just too bad where all so far apart...
Not sure about you guys, but all of my other friends ( and do have a couple) could care less about Soda machines stuff, much less drive in a car for hours to go look at something or pick something up and actually be excited about it.. Very cool! I hope you all an make the Chicago Fall show... We had a great party last fall! Title: Re: A trip to Cincinnati Post by: johnieG on April 18, 2011, 02:56:16 pm Johnie, Is this a 126 or 122...? I think Leonard told me the tag states 122; can you verify since I may have inaccurate info...? Thanks My bad..Typo it's a 122...Dooh!
