Title: 1946 VENDO BROCHURE ? Post by: toolbox on June 21, 2013, 12:17:01 pm Hey guys and dolls – I’ve read about a 1946 Vendo advertisement or brochure but I’ve never seen one. It may list a V-17 and a V-59 Top and basket assemblies. Could somebody post a copy, it would really help the research.
Thanks and have a good one. Ted Title: Re: 1946 VENDO BROCHURE ? Post by: Jim on June 21, 2013, 04:07:09 pm Ted,
I don't have any info on the V-17 but you can review a brochure image... Vendo V-17 (http://soda-machines.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=534&Itemid=14) Hopefully helpful...

So was this a machine that was purchased and the owner refilled it an kept the money?

Title: Re: 1946 VENDO BROCHURE ? Post by: toolbox on June 24, 2013, 12:26:54 pm You got it Slapshot. In 1946 Cavalier made and sold their FD-2 small cooler. It was later known as the ‘Office Dry Cooler’. Vendo apparently manufactured the V-17 Top and basket assemblies for the bottling companies to mount in the field.
In 1949 Cavalier changed it to their C-27 with their own vending mechanism. I have yet to see any Vendo published information on the V-17. Have a good one. Ted Title: Re: 1946 VENDO BROCHURE ?
