Title: Westinghouse 78
Post by: MoonDawg on July 06, 2005, 12:20:02 pm
MoonDawg here at the Coca Cola convention in Portland.
         Have been asked to interpret sign language for a deaf mute family here. Lady's husband passed away and she is selling his Coke collection, and moving to New York.
         She now lives here in Portland and has a coke machine she wants to sell.
         She did not bring it to the hotel for obvious reasons but I saw a picture of it. It is a NICE Westinghouse 78.The light-up sign....in addition to the Coca Cola script, has 3 diamond cans on it. Seems rare to me.
          I picked up a VMC 33 and have no more room in this Volvo wagon.  If anyone is interested  in her machine,let me
know. Can baybe get her daughter to take a digital pic.

Glen - I'm interested.  I've been looking for a "can themed" 78.

Does it have the can opener bumpout on the door?

A digital pic would help me a lot.  You can send to keenan58@aol.com or just post it here.

Thanks, Bob

Thanks for the pictures, Glen.  I had mistakenly assumed it was a Multidrink with the selection dial :(  .

That's a real nice machine, though.
