Picked this little cooler yesterday from a nice couple that got it right from their brother-in-law, who worked for Coca-Cola! They had it at least 40+ years, always kept it inside, but it had the dings in it already when they got it.
The coin mech and racks are long gone, but it still looks cool , and they were using it for parties until recently.
I know some-one who will hate the sticker I added, but it takes a bit of the focus off the big ding in the logo.
Thanks for lookin', have a great week-end all!!
Now that's what I call a real sweet piece! Great Pick right there, Bernie. And you found a great spot for it, looks right at home under that window.
Very nice pick! Looks great with all your other Collectibles!

Looks Great, nice pick
Bet it's had more Molsons & Labatts run thru it than coke.
Thank-you Dave,Michael, Kerry, & blunderbuss for the nice comments. There were an awful lot of Molson caps mixed in with the coke cap blunderbuss, hmm ,sounds like you've been to Canada before :)
Thank-you walksoftly, Chevelleman, Phil, trukn20, shugs, & leighannrn for the "loves"!
Cool cooler!
105 times by my count.
That's enough to make you an honorary "Canuck" blunderbuss !!
What's you fav. Canadian malted beverage?
If the statute de limitations has expired, do you think I can become one? Of course all my passports won't give a total of 105 as in a lot of trips back in those days didn't send invitations to immigration & customs. Actual count is 105. What are the other requirements? Do I have to have an extension cord hanging off my front bumper? Plastic windscreen scraper on my key-ring?
Thanks Ray, I looked at taking out the inner lining and pounding out the dent, but the paint loss would still show, and I'm getting lazy in my golden years!& I knew the sticker was going to get a mention from you!! The party is going on here quite often, but I'm usually trying to sleep through them,as it's the kids and their friends!Not a smart move having our bedroom over the games room.
"8 pack" party when ever ya'll get here!
I'm sure you'd always be welcomed back to Canada blunderbuss, if St. Maarten's took ya, you'd be a shoe-in to get back here. We're taking almost anybody these days!
Thank-you rhinoman, EJW54, sanhardin, undreal, Antiquetoys, and mtg75 for the "loves"! Cheers!!
St. Maarten takes anybody, not "almost anybody" as long as you have money or an excuse,eh. Right,eh, f--ing right eh! Do they still make Brador(?) super beer? After a 6 pac of Golden, one of those was a trip,eh. Just say "no" to Bill 101 & pass my best to "Joe Who". Yeah, it's been awhile since I was up there,eh. "T.O." is still my favourite big city, eh!
What an ideal way to keep your favorite beverages cool, for sure. Looks great there too!!
How many Molson stickers did you have to steam off that thing?
Thanks Tommy for the nice comment!
