Title: Popcorn Warmers
Post by: johnnyfizz on June 19, 2012, 09:51:34 pm
Hey all,I have an opportunity to purchase several,maybe up to 20,of these popcorn warmers.ABC popcorn company,French boy counter or bar top models.I think late 1940's or 1950's vintage.Most would need new plastic tops(melted or cracked) if anyone knows of a source for them.If I get them I may restore 1 or 2 and just sell off the rest as is.

Any replies or advice would be appreciated. I will also check with Ross over at the Manley forum.

Great to see the interest,now I will have to make work of it.I'll set up an up an appointment with the guy and hope to give him an offer soon.My pickin' buddy was already there and bought 2 and he's not really interested in any more.I can get some pics of those two, and I was just planning on making the guy an offer on all the rest.Could be other stuff there too.

Same one as in the pic you posted Creighton.Some are on those stands and some with chrome curved legs

Lenord, I have your glass, been done for months now. Just waiting on you to let me know when your ready. Jim saw it when he was here. Turned out great. Been finishing up lots of projects. Phone, I'm getting more than 60 calls a day and don't have time to full with answering it every 5 min. Steve and I are working 7 days a week and the work keeps rolling in. I'll call you in the next few days.

Folks can we try and keep replys on topic.
Reports of call log numbers and work load have nothing to do with the popcorn warmers on this thread.
There is a PM, Personal Message function to update customers of the status of their restoration.

Thanks for the update on  my USS64!! I'm sure it will be worldclass. I keep ignoring BC's comments that square tops are no fun, poor man's coke machine, sort of like AAA baseball and the Major Leagues...mutt dogs vs. pedigrees, etc. !! Now i need to figure out how to get another 8 pull Theatre past my wife to match the otehr two.

I will let you all know on the status of these warmers by the end of next week, but I'll  post pics of the 2 we got sooner than that.Some deals take a bit of time.
