Title: Another Vintage Black Friday Post by: SodaShopNick on December 02, 2013, 11:38:40 pm I have been fortunate enough to be able to pick up some cool items the past few years on the day after Thanksgiving and this year proved to be no different. While no great rarities I think there are some cool stuff. The first is a Dole Citation Dispenser. Although dirty it looks like it will clean up nice. The second are some vintage syrup jugs. The last is a pretty cool Home Handbook that is from Whiteville, NC and appears to have a listing of the placement of Coke Coolers in that area from early 1966 through 1971. I am not sure the pictures will come through clear so here are a few examples this book shows:
Whiteville Blanket License Coolers Placed October 1, 1968 through October 31, 1968 Date Dealer Model Serial New or Used 10-8-68 Waccamaw Bar-B-Q Hut C6-2440 547176 Used 10-23-68 Bladen Co. Tech Institute C6-2440 547202 Used Pictures coming..... Title: Re: Another Vintage Black Friday Post by: SodaShopNick on December 02, 2013, 11:39:57 pm Dole Citation:

cola62, I guess that Waccamaw BBQ Hut could have been the one in SC. Interesting though as Whiteville is in NC, but who knows how the coverage worked as it is only about 1 hour 15 mins away. You are right about the local history as it is so neat to see where some of these coolers where located. I am seeing everywhere from Crystals Trailer Park to the Planters Warehouse. By the way I am located in Holly Springs NC just outside of Raleigh. mznb1u, Yikes on that post. I know it is not real, but as you say it would not surprise me either if someday it was real.
