Soda/Icecream fountain

My wife and I found this in an old storage shed that was owned by my wifes parents. In speaking to my father in law he said that my mother in law purchased this in the early 60's for $12 for her antique store. Unfortunately she is no longer alive to ask her any details about it. We don't know anything about this. It would be nice to know about when it was built and its approximate value. It looks pretty good in our house. We just don't know exactly what we have here. Thanks for any help
