Title: BEST COLLECTOR BOOK? Post by: BONOVOX on July 10, 2011, 07:33:42 pm Hey all
Just wondering if any one here knows of a good book for prices with illustrations for machines, signs, door pushes etc. all from Coca cola to everything else. If you know of a book or two (one for all coke, one for everything else lol) please let me, and others know :biggrin: Thanks to all in advance Title: Re: BEST COLLECTOR BOOK? Post by: Eric on July 10, 2011, 08:03:14 pm As far as machines there is Jeff Walters Machine Book, on its 3rd edition but it's a few years old
(I still have the 2nd from 1995) which some prices are the same, some (like the 81 odds) are WAY higher now. Allen Petretti, of course, has the Coke books which are a little dated also.. and He also put a book out called SODA POP -Has everything but Coke in it.... on its 2nd edition which is dated 1999. I think there are a couple other guys that have Coke machine books and Coke collectibles. There is a Pepsi collectible book... But as far as off brands, Petretti's SODA POP is the only book I know of. Books seemed to have SLOWED way down... we need a new machine book out. Title: Re: BEST COLLECTOR BOOK?

I'm curious to know what they sold for back then.(I still have the 2nd from 1995) which some prices are the same, some (like the 81 odds) are WAY higher now. Title: Re: BEST COLLECTOR BOOK? Post by: Eric on July 20, 2011, 07:03:14 pm Restored prices of 81s from the 1995 2nd addition book:
Coke 81a = $2800 Coke 81d = $2900 Pepsi 81 = $3400 Dr Pepper 81 = $2100 7UP 81 = $3800 RC 81 = $5500 Title: Re: BEST COLLECTOR BOOK? Post by: Matt on July 20, 2011, 07:12:57 pm Ohh my. That's like a 2 for 1 at today's prices.
