Title: 7 up door push
Post by: Ginger Prince on January 01, 2008, 07:45:53 am
hi everyone from England and a happy and healthy new year to you all.


have recently moved into my new home & started to unpack some items

& found the cast aluminium door push i bought late last year from the US.

have attached pix of it as arrived and after a bit of a clean up, [whoever
invented the toothbrush never knew how old toothbrushes would have a
second life as invaluable to the restorer!!].

the door push is going onto one of the cellar doors, whenever I can get
into it past all the rubbish etc.

what I would like to know is did they do this same cast aluminium door
push in other brands too, [however obscure] and how rare are they!



i would like the other doors in the cellar to have similar pushes if available

i have seen many of the horizontal door pushes but am not interested in
those format.

many thx in advance

kind regards

gingerprince

Ginger,

I have a few of these. I have never seen them in another brand, only in 7up.

i forgot to include that the door push is stamped on the back
with the manufacturers name town and state address details:

the aluminum spec co
atchison? in kansas

whether this helps or not im not too sure

i could really do with another two pushes

plenty of time though as these cellars still need some work!!!
