I bought this from a small boutique and they knew nothing about it. I have researched for hours and have found 1 similar but all info is unknown and they estimate it is from the 1950's. Mine has a stamp " C & H Fan Co. Inc. Atlanta, GA" under the 25 cent plus deposit and it stands 57 inches tall and 19 1/2 inches wide. I am fascinated with this find and can't wait to know more about it. Please help!

Your item is a 1949 display rack that would have been used as a point of purchase display in the old mom and pop stores. It held 26 cartons on 4 wire trays that hooked over the horizontal bars. 6 - 6 bottle cartons to a tray. Unfortunately you are missing the trays. I wish we could still get a 6 bottle carton for a quarter!
Wow! Thank you so much, I am fairly new to this and really appreciate the help! Hopefully I can make this treasure complete.
