    I was out over the weekend looking for some Coke carriers and found three more in a little antique store in Indiana. Almost got the Coke carrier rack full. These are the carriers with the war wings on theme. Two are in pretty good shape and the third one will work even though it’s not as nice. Only have to have a few more and it will be completed. Thank you all that stop by and look and comment! Always appreciated . Have a great week and good luck on your next find!

      Pretty awesome find Michael!! This is the first time I've ever seen Coke carriers like these. Nice!

      In picture #4, I can see part of a red and silver colored metal carrier which holds 6 Cokes. I would love to see a better picture of those because I have many painful experiences with those {: -(
      When I was a child back in the 50s-60s, my grandmother would send the children on errands to the grocery store about 1/4 mile away. We had to take the CocaCola carriers with the empty bottles so we did not have to pay a deposit, which I think was 3 cents per bottle.
      Those carriers have a metal handle which pulled up when you wanted to carry it but retracted into the carrier when not in use. The handle is rather narrow, not much bigger around than a pencil.
      Carrying the"empties" was not too bad but going back home with full bottles was very uncomfortable. There were always at least 2 of us children, so we had to take turns carrying the things.
      We had a 6 bottle carrier and a 12 bottle carrier.
      The 12 pack one would make us feel like we were getting our fingers cut off!
      I've looked for years for one of the metal ones like you have there.
      Will you post a close up of one?
      Just a "walk down Memory Lane"!

      Watchsearcher, If you go through my photos I’ve already posted those Coke carriers your talking about. Just scroll through my collection and you will find them. Glad I was able to take you down memory lane thank you for stopping in and commenting.

      Another great find! Collecting the bottles, dispensers, signs, etc is awesome. The Coke itself seems to poison us I hear from recent medical studies.
