Up for your consideration is a vintage red metal Coca Cola cooler. Made by Progress Refrigeration Co Louisville, Ky in the 1940s, I believe possibly 1950s. The condition is fair to the good side of poor. There are scratches in the paint. There are dents and dings with a larger one on the upper right corner area of the back panel. The also shows some denting. The handle is in good shape. The bottle opener is still present. The drain cap is still present. There is some surface rust as shown. Interior is in good shape. The sandwich tray is present and is in good shape. I thunk this is a great box for restoration or could definitely still be used as a cooler. Overall this is still a good piece. Size -18.75″L x 12.5″W x 19.5H 25 pounds before packing. If you pick Smart Post and Priority is cheaper I go with Priority. The majority of the items I sell are estate finds.

As in almost all vintage items this piece has signs of wear, with some possible scratches and scuffs. All of these things added together is what makes these vintage pieces so attractive to us. It takes us back to an earlier, simple time, when things were not throwaway and disposable. Reclaim-bring it back home. Repurpose-chances are it won’t be used in its original form, the possibilities of use are only limited by your imagination. Reuse-too much from our lives is throwaway. We need to find new and creative ways to reuse, so we do not completely drown in the disposable. If you need more than three days please let me know.
