Is this an Atlas cooler? Is there a model number?

Quikold S-96 is what it looks like from the soda machine section... looks solid... you just pick it up?

Thanks Eric,

My first thought was that it was an Atlas as pictured on page 206 of Jeff Walters book. However the S-96 appears to be correct. Is there any other production run info available? The page shown here states produced in 1941. Would that have been a one year production run?

I'm not sure though I have a brochure that shows different models up into the late 1940s.. I would think it was made longer than a year...
a member here named Pat P. had cap catchers made that would have been for that model... he's not on the site
much anymore but maybe someone on here that is still in contact with him will give him a heads up if you're in
the market for one.
