Title: Winona, MN Coke Machines Video Post by: dr galaga on August 06, 2011, 05:25:16 pm I came across this video (http://discussions.mnhs.org/shpo/2011/01/10/pmn2010-01-coca-cola_bottling_co_winona_historic_commerce_tour/) today that the Minnesota Historical Society shot last winter. It shows all of the collectible items that they have at the Winona Coke plant, but mostly the machines. Keep an eye out for a V-39 in an original shipping box :oh: .

Do they offer tours of the plant to the general public or was that a special tour for the Hysterical Society? :biggrin: Title: Re: Winona, MN Coke Machines Video Post by: dr galaga on August 07, 2011, 10:07:07 am A few years ago I asked for a tour and all they showed me was the bottling/filling area for the returnable bottles and the Cornelius post mix kegs.

Title: Re: Winona, MN Coke Machines Video Post by: 90grad on August 07, 2011, 11:57:44 am Cool video! I liked how when someone asked if the Vendo 39 was from the 40's and the guide said yes. I know 39s started to come out in 1949, but I wonder if he checked the serial number??
