       It would be OK for chocolate milk. I think the cow machine would have looked better left all white without the spots.

Also looks like a Victor cooler behind it...
Perhaps a 2 door Victor C-18...

I think it is a C-31 based on the proximity of the cap catcher to the compressor grill

       I would guess it to be the C-18 too.....the compressor grill looks to be just a little wider on the C-31 than this one

These things are coming out like crazy. They were painted brown at one point in use. Just not that dark.

they're Coming out of the woodwork thanks to our new best friend Rick Dale.  I guess it's great if you want $4000 for one that is restored.  Not good for all of the other "junkers" out there.

I remember the little milk cartons from grade school, but are they still available? If I spend 4 grand on a V81, at least I know product is still available to fill it.

Yes the half pints are still available and haven't changed in size over the years.

Ahh, the half pints of milk that they used to give us in kindergarten.  My memory of those was that you could get chocolate or plain milk and there was a kid in my class who used to get chocolate everytime and at least once a week we would see that chocolate reappear with his breakfast on the classroom floor!  The things that stick with you from childhood! :tounge:

Something like that.  As I recall it was pink in color and it only made the smell worse!
