This auction offers a unique Coca Cola beverage cooler that dates back to the 1960s or so. It is often referred to as an "airline" cooler, since these were commonly used on planes years ago to keep bottled Cokes ice cold. It is solidly made of heavy grade metal, and is in good overall condition for it's 40+ year old age. Of course, it shows various signs of use, but those imperfections always give a vintage item charm and character!

The two front clasps and the side mounted bottle opener are somewhat rusty but very functional, the red finish is chipped, scratched, and flaked in several spots but is still vibrant for it's age, and the bottom has very slight rust just beginning around the edge, but it has been tested and is sealed and watertight. The two rear hinges are complete and in good condition, and the top seals firmly against the bottom of the cooler when it is closed. The inside is very shiny and in excellent shape, with a few small dings and some slight rust at the bottom, but it is very clean and certainly reuseable if desired. T is a carrying handle located on top that pivots from front to rear and a metal bottle opener is mounted on one side for opening the old style cork lined bottle caps.

This unique piece of Coke history has been in storage for many years, and most of it's imperfections occurred because the building was damp on occasion from a leaky roof. It is a rare and highly desireable item for Coca Cola memorabilia collectors. These can cost several hundred dollars at antique dealers, flea markets, or estate auctions, but this is your chance to own one and add it to your collection for much less!

This item is heavy, and will be carefully packed for safe shipping. The shipping cost is a flat rate of $25 to any state in the continental USA. The actual shipping cost will apply elsew worldwide.

If you have any questions, please feel free to inquire by emailing me at . I also have other Coke memorabilia available that I will be listing soon, including vintage glass bottles (some with the product still inside), a bottle shaped wall thermometer, and some advertising signs.

I appreciate your interest and especially your bid!
