Title: Lyon's dispenser
Post by: sodaworks on January 24, 2006, 11:41:44 am
I thought I would share a couple of photo's of my Lyon's dispenser. No this isn't the cup machine that USMC has. Wonder what the status is on that one. Sure would have looked good in my collection with my other two cup machines, but that's another story. Anyways, I forgot that I had this dispenser it sits up on a shelf in my resto. shop. On the label it says "since 1852"thats long before Coca-Cola (1886) and Pepsi which was originally known as "Brad's Drink". It came out of a soda fountain shop called the "Carosel" in the town that I grew up in. Arvin, Ca.

Terry that decal looks pretty cool... if you decide to restore it back... if you could somehow
lay it flat on a scanner or get a close up on all the detail I could rebuild it for you in a format
that you  could have them made... Looks like red, white, gray/silver and a blue.

Sounds great Eric, but I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it. It's back up on the shelf for now. :D

Wouldn't this look real nice with the Lyon's cup dispenser?
