  1. Love the fire pull station stand too chevy, very nice! Great display!
  2. You are right fifties, getting full indeed! Still see a little room for more though! Looks like an awesome collection!
  3. Very cool, and must be quite rare here!
  4. Great idea! These were also found on cars to get into the rumble seat.
  5. Very nicely displayed fifties, love them!! I would be making walnut bases for stands for them all, so they sit level, but that's just me! I need things secure!
  6. Def a fake!! pg 619, Petretti's 12th edition, value $10-15 fantasy dial added to old watch, not original.
  7. All great condition too! I'm getting very jealous fifties!!
  8. Thank-you Cocacola22, bratjdd, & mustangtony for the "loves"!!
  9. How do you display these fifties? They are very cool!
  10. Next time you're in Vegas, they are at Ceasars. The Rockola was mint, and they had a ton of coca-cola too!
  11. Nice snag fifties!!
  12. Hi Tom, welcome to C.W.! All your posters date from the '40's, only the 3rd is listed in the book I have (Petretti's 12th) as being 20"x36", pg 121 @ $600 in mint cond. The others would go for the sam...
  13. Hey Perry, I found you a Rockola! http://www.antiquitieslv.com/servlet/the-3123/Vintage-1948-Rockola-original/Detail Don't freak at the price, they came off thier asking $quickly on a sign I was lo...
  14. You are a true visionary blunderbuss2, too bad the coca-cola people did'nt realize the genius in simplicity and craftsmanship! Who's your little crabby friend?
  15. Ya baby, those are the best mistakes, when you're not lookin for 'em! Great snag brotha! Get the truck yet? Ps : is Ray stalking you on E-bay?
  16. Very creative restoration, looks great!
  17. Great gift from your friend, nice finish to the display Perry!
  18. I have one too Dave, with the key!! I'll have to post it sometime! Mine is open bars and and flat-stock, not plated like your though. Very cool!
  19. Great post Dave! Any holster come with these? Awesome that you kept them all these years, I would have loved these as a kid too! I had the Daisy rifle until I got my first 22! Bern
  20. Dave, that S&W looks in amazing condition! Are those grips orig. do you know? Beautiful piece!!
  21. Looks kinda "Sheepish" , maybe bighorn? What would this amulet have been used for Agram.m?
  22. SHHHH! Don't tell anyone OK!!
  23. Welcome Cocacola22 to Cw!! If you don't already have a one, buy a copy of Petretti's 12th edition before you buy any more vintage coca-cola items. It's the best money you can spend! Your carrier is f...
  24. Thank-you EJW-54, blunderbuss, Michael, Trey, Chevelleman, Designer, sugargirl, shughs, Sean, walksoftly, & trukn20 for the "loves"!! Cheers!!
  25. Thank -you coca-cola22.. x2!!
  26. That's a sweet piece, never seen one!! Looks very "Jetson's"!
  27. Thanks for the info Bill, much appreciated!
  28. If it is a sticker as Ray has figured, then it was likely put on recently as part of a resto or to increase the value. A coca-cola distributer putting a logo on a piece makes it an original IMO. Fou...
  29. Very nice collection, not a doll collector by any means but appreciate a good collection of anything( also am a big fan of the roaring '20's-30's)!! Welcome to C.W.!!
  30. Have you ever seen this form of cooler though Ray? It has a certain style and quality to it that would say to me there where likely few of these made, probably due cost and maybe to the war, and Bradf...
  31. Amazing detail, love these!
  32. I always take away a little more knowledge and a greater appreciation for each item you post Phil , and I've always had an appreciation for these beautiful works of art! So very informative and knowle...
  33. Another amazing post Phil, can't believe I missed this before. Where do you get the bases made? These are just waay too cool!
  34. Thank-you gargoylecollector and Phil for the "love"!!
  35. Thank-you Phil, mustangtony, blunderbuss, and Michael for the "loves"!!
  36. Thank-you Dave and Spriteboy! Any idea what these "change receiver's" are worth Bill? I figured there would be a limited # of them out there because of the small market they were made for.
  37. Thank-you Phil, very nice of you to say! This old girl still get's the "jeep wave" going down the road, and tons of attention anywhere it's parked, and the neighbourhood kids are always eager to go fo...
  38. Nice job,looks great!
  39. You got a great deal, wish I could find one for that! I just paid 150 for the old one I just posted, but I usually put @20+ hrs of labor into restoring them , and that's only for the cosmetic portion....
  40. I would'nt say it's crazy, only because it's hard to put a value on rarity. To restore a cooler to this condition can cost twice that or more, and that's for a more common one. If you are making a go...
  41. Nice! Good luck with the ice cream shop, that's a great business up there in the summer! What are ya selling in the winter? Hot chocolate would be a big seller! Hope you get a crazy price for it, I ...
  42. Wow, you got a smokin' deal!
  43. Dang, that's a ways away! Are you starting a collection, adding to one or just liked the looks of the cooler? , cause I love the looks of this one!
  44. Thanks Phil, that's the plan, but with the nice weather finally here, it might have to wait a bit!
  45. What part of Ontario are you at?
  46. If it is a water bath cooler, it likely would not have a rack system in it, they just put the bottles in , and the customer would reach in a grab-a-cold-one! I have an all wood ice cooler with a simi...
  47. BTW, great website too, very interesting!
  48. Roy, these are spectacular, so much detail! How old are they? Handmade or machine or? Very nice collection!
  49. Wow, she's a big-un! Are you keeping it as is, restoring, or? Great sign gorgeman, and welcome to C.W.!!
  50. Hey Ken, welcome to C.W. ! That is a very unusual cooler, I've never seen one like it in Canada or anywhere else on-line. Is the door wood or metal? It looks like blunderbuss has suggested, that it ha...
