Okay - Sorry about the pics, but this is a friends item and these are the pics they sent me via their cell phone. So I guess they will have to do.
I have saw the item so can explain a bit about it. It is all metal Coke Cup dispenser. The front door opens, and there is also a lid that can open or close on the top. It holds 12 oz., 14 oz., and 20 oz Coke Cups. Call it a Coke cup holder or a Triple Fountain Cup Dispenser. I guess it would be kinda a Store Display (advertising) type of item too.
Size is about:
~ 2 Feet Tall
~ 15 inches Wide
~ 6 inches Deep
Just got these pics and trying to find some info on it but have not found much yet. I will try to get better pics when I get over there in the near future. So I hope these are okay....as that is all I got what they sent me.
What year are these from? Being metal more Rare? It is kinda Neat item, I think. Any other info Welcome.....
Anything Coca Cola is collectible..........LOL
Logo used from 1969 to 1987....is that correct, as I just found that on the Net
Looks like it is from a cafeteria or fast food place. Self serve cups dispenser the would be beside the soft drink dispenser. One might find an ice cube dispenser close by. Straw and lids would be at the end of the line. Not too far away would be the napkins and condiments.
Sorry, got carried away.
Just my opinion on what the item could be.
Hi Rose, Yes that's the right time period. I remember when the faux wood look was popular during the 70's. The 12 oz cup decal is missing from your friend's dispenser, but otherwise looks to be in good condition. I found one auction result for a smaller version from same period. CK's description is accurate, might have been in a theater or convenience store.

Thanks for the Reply.
Looks like that one is smaller as it does not have the faux wood part at the top. Not a big ticket item.....LOL.....But still a neat older Coke item of Coke Days gone by
Ya know, with a little work, this could be a great medicine cabinet for a Coca Cola themed bathroom.
@cokekid -- Great idea !!!! That's thinking outside the box.
~ ~ Now you also got me thinking THIS would also be a Great Toilet-Paper Roll Holder/storage for a Coca Cola Bathroom....lol....
Love that idea.
