Pat. 1930 Glascock Bros. Mfg. Co. Coca-Cola Cooler. Rusty, and crusty and ready to restore. Missing the bottle opener. I purchased this from an old guy who got it out of a childhood store he visited in PA. He said he got it right before an auction house was getting ready to cart it off in the 60's. Its seen better days and was thinking about restoring it. Lots of nice coca cola love crust on there. Think this is the Jr. Model.

don't restore it unless it's for your own use! restored items don't sell well for coca cola collectors. yes it is a coca cola glascock juinor. I don't think you should restore, it's just a waste of time and money. just keep it the shape it's in, it's kinda looks good like that.
sorry, i think it looks good like that.
and I try not to act like i've been collecting all my life.
Restore it
