Title: Any good finds lately?
Post by: Zach on August 28, 2017, 01:02:56 pm
I've been on somewhat of a dry streak lately but hopefully some other members have snagged some goodies. Anyone have any good finds lately?

         Ray and I were junkin' a few weeks ago and came home with this embossed Mexican cooler.

I posted a few things I found/bought a few weeks back...  :biggrin:

Pre-War Stoner Theater Vendors (http://soda-machines.com/discussions/index.php/topic,21916.0.html)

I also just purchased a late 40's/50's Theater w/ Gum/Mint Wheel & change-giver mech!  This will be for sale in the coming weeks ! ! !

Picked these up earlier this summer.  They were found as a group and came out of the attic of an old garage.  The sleds are dated 1948.

        Love those Coke buttons and sleds!  :happydrinkers:

        This early unrestored 110 came in for service.  New to me, has anybody ever see these Vendo stamps before?

Picked up a Coke button of my own recently.  Not as nice as yours but the first old sign I have ever bought.

I think that means its a reproduction and you should just get rid of it.. as it's not as collectable.. :biggrin: :biggrin: :glare:
