Jeff ! Title: Re: westinghouse model ??? Post by: johnieG on September 22, 2013, 08:31:04 pm It's a BU standard ( Butt-Ugly) :tounge:.. other than that , I'm drawing a blank. the grill looks like it was copied from a garden gate.
Title: Re: westinghouse model ??? Post by: Eric on September 22, 2013, 09:25:37 pm It's a Master size cooler can tell by the width of the lids... painted up right has a great Deco look to it...
Book says it's a harder model to find... Title: Re: westinghouse model ???

Lol I disagree, I think it's a nice looking cooler and I'm sure if the grill had the painted mesh it would look even better ! Thanks Eric, the book doesn't give any type of model number ?

Your cooler’s official name is a ‘Westinghouse Master Ice’. In the picture, I don’t see any evidence that it was ‘Electric’. Its manufacturing date range is 1936, +/- 2 years, for sure! Good looking unit. Hope this helps, have a good one. Ted Title: Re: westinghouse model ??? Post by: mygoose101 on September 23, 2013, 02:58:39 pm Isn't that cooler what they call a Tennessee Cooler? Moondawg will know. Our late friend Gary had one and this looks like the model he had.

Just a tweakin' you is all.. :laugh: I know some Westy's were made for them by the Cavalier corp down in Tennessee-way from what I recall...It could be one of those models.

Title: Re: westinghouse model ??? Post by: MoonDawg on September 23, 2013, 06:36:45 pm I believe it was as manufactured by Westinghouse, then modified slightly and marketed by Tennessee Furniture Manufacturing Company as Ray stated.
