Post by: shadeone on July 14, 2016, 03:20:53 pm
Just thought I'd share my tap handle collection here. It's not getting much viewing on my dusty shelf at home  :biggrin:
Always appreciate leads on ones I don't have!!

       Now that's an impressive collection, and organized well. 

       So what's a guy supposed to collect when he has ALL the Coke tap handles?   :laugh:

Machines are my next step. I live in a studio apartment and the wife hasn't quit warmed up to the idea of replacing our fridge with a vendo 81 or using an ideal slider cooler as my bedside table  :laugh:
