Hit some nice sales and shops and picked up some nice smalls... Nice little Perk Up candy machine, apothecary jar,
and small Hires tacker sign...
The Progress A-4 cooler was in a booth in the bottom of a knockdown wardrobe... $50!!!
missing the sandwich tray and gasket but a really clean survivor.... I know Vintage Vending reproduced
that gasket but when they got out of the restoration business they sold piles.. PILES of it on ebay
Does anyone here know who may have bought some or has some... obvious in need of one.
Thanks for any help or leads..

Will also post this in the cooler section.... thanks.

Nice finds Eric. Was your son with you when you picked the items? Teach him how to pick?

No just the wife and I this time out... But when we do go as a family they see stuff and question... Having a basement full of this stuff they have a pretty good eye...
I try to point out new from old, look at condition, what is common, what brand is harder to find, etc. Our 12 year old son really like root beer.. so he looks for any brand in that
with Barq's and Hires being his favorite, our 9 year old daughter like Pepsi so she looks for that... and our 16 year old son looks for WWII items while
he text his girlfriend on the phone smile
Didn't post it in the picture but we did find a small WWII German flag for him... he was excited. He has a great collection (for a 16 year old) of WWII
items... He loves talking with Vets and hearing their stories, we go to reenactments and he gets them to sign his WWII books, kinda neat idea.
