Title: Coca-Cola Coolers Post by: bdenison on April 24, 2012, 10:30:30 am Hey Folks, a couple of coolers popped up on my local Kijiji that I'm going to take a look at. Any thoughts on estimated values?
The first one is being advertised as a "1940's fountain dispenser cooler" and the other two as "coolers from the 60's" Appreciate any help. Cheers! Title: Re: Coca-Cola Coolers Post by: Eric on April 24, 2012, 10:54:38 am Make sure the dispenser is complete, there should be a small stainless steel tank inside with a lid, inside that there should be a rod/plunger
there should also be a clamp type base used to fasten it to the counter.... Look for rust through and damage of course. Also check the rubber gasket around the top edge.. this is not available and is not reproduced. Can't tell if it is emboseed or logo is screened on.. if screened on it would be worth less... I haven't bought one in a while... I would guess $300-$400 for that style... I hope others chime in... coolers I have no idea... compare them to ebay sales. Same with the dispenser. Good Luck Title: Re: Coca-Cola Coolers Post by: bdenison on April 24, 2012, 11:57:54 am Thanks for the help Eric! I was able to get some more pics of the dispenser.
Seller says sides are not embossed, very minimal rust and no lid for the inside tank. Thanks again! |
