Title: Coke Rack Post by: autobon7 on July 06, 2014, 08:43:43 pm I have had this for a while but have no idea what kind of value it holds. It looks complete but sign is faded (obviously). Any input is certainly appreciated.

Regret that does little for the value. Worth a look see is if it will polish up with Flitz. Last thing I need is another project... if you are interested in selling please send a PM. Thanks! Creighton Title: Re: Coke Rack Post by: cola62 on July 07, 2014, 06:10:48 am Probably around $125

Not to hijack this thread, but there is a rack on E-bay today too. http://www.ebay.com/itm/191236520519?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/191236520519?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649) Title: Re: Coke Rack Post by: jholmgren on July 07, 2014, 08:42:53 am Interesting how the red faded but the white letters are so intact.

They lived in a very small town (75 people) and had what I like to call the worlds 1st convenience store as they had gas, a post office, a meat slicer and fresh meat and produce, and anything associated with living in the 40s and being miles away from a town that offered more conveniences. My Grandmother retired from the post office in the mid 70s and store closed shortly after. I remember they had a large Coke cooler that I used to get "chocolate" sodas (don't remember the brand) from when I was very young. The cooler was gone :darn: by the time I got the chance to look around after she passed but got the rack and a few misc hand tools that my Grandpa had. Oh and an old vice that I would love to restore one day.
