All are late model reproductions & hardly "20" years old ( and in piss-poor shape too)...the clock, maybe, but he's not showing what it is..sooooo..hmmmmm..pass   glare

Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes.

The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p

Wow...Are you sure.. I know they reproduced the Coke but didn't know they repro'd the Club Beer and Snackmaster...
the small embossing looks different than some of the repro embossing... wish they'd show close up and more images.
Would be good to know if those are being reproduced too...

I agree with Eric, don't believe the snackmaster is repop

Yep, Jeff Walters had a whole line of these made...they were repo'd I'm pretty sure, look inside & if it has an aluminum liner that's your cue it's a genuine repop.   biggrin

I saw one just yesterday at the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport on a layover flight with a local brewers logo on it, kinda neat!

But if they're galvanized inside then grab 'em! they'd be quite a find.

I've seen those repro's, they're nice...they repro'd 2 different styles of Pepsi, Frostie, Dr Pepper, Grapette a couple done in Stainless too...
then another company got the license for Coke and he's reproing that... also seen a new Sundrop and some gas staion companies...
The ones I'm wondering about is the City Beer and Snackmaster... Thoses I would get images of... I'm leaning real on those.

Adding Orange Crush and NuGrape to the repro list...

      I believe all the reproduction 6 pk coolers had the bottle opener mounted below the swing handle, so straight bars on each side like the picture below.
      The originals have a bend on one side to clear the higher bottle opener.

If those are repros, he did a damn good job aging them, have to be real.

What I can't figure out is what is everything stacked on? Coolers look real to me.
