I stumbled on this near my house with the help of a friend.

Any idea make, model, a reasonable price.  Looking for the "I want to keep in price" .

Educated Guesses:

Beverage Air, Atlas, or Quickcold?

Thanks!

If the lids are embossed with the RC cola logo on the underside, it's probably an Quickcold, but I think it looks more like an Atlas.

I'd offer $300.00 if it's solid/no rust out.

It's not a Quikold or S&S the base would be stamped out for the legs...
The Atlas in the Walters book shows the sides are inclosed to the base...
Doubt the lids are embossed...
If you like it and it's solid I agree with johnnieG at around $300...
Hard brand to find anything in other than the huge Kelvinator or Bevco.
nice little size that would display well.

Good Luck

I can't say for sure, but it looks very similar to a Lonergan Cooler

Provide that photo so we can zoom in too...
Due to image posting limitations, you can send me the high resolution photo of the tag for further inspection...
