This is a cooler that I got a long time ago in Fayetteville, NC. I haven't seen any others like it. It has two storage nooks in the sides for cases? They are like slanted shelves with a depth of approx 5 inches. It has a handle, bottle opener, and a top stop... I would like to know the year and value. It is a little dusty in this picture. It had some minor damage (holes in top and rusted bottom of feet). It seems to be made of steel and galvanize sheet inside.
I think this is referred to as the Glascock Junior cooler...from 1929. Although it should have the word "DRINK" above the Coca-Cola script logo...unless they made another version...or this was crudely restored at one time. Value is around $1600. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
It was crudely restored before I got it... The ring is raised as well as the coca cola name. No other raised lettering. Thanks a bunch for the info...
This is indeed the Glascock Jr, and I have seen them without the "Drink". The value depends on the condition. I just sold one on EBay for $875 plus shipping, but it only had one good side. The other three had rust on the logo. But he still got a good buy since I am liquidating my 3000 piece 40 year collection.
