For auction is this Squirt Merry Go Round cooler in fair to good condition. Cooler is dated 1953 and is made by Hamilton Industries, Hamilton, Ohio same as Scotch coolers. Handle is missing but looks to be the same as a Scotch cooler and tfore easy to replace. It shows the same scene four times going all around. On one scene t is a rusty scratch and some rust spots(see pics). T were two dents that I popped out with a plunger which improved them 95% but a little rippling left. They did not photograph and you cant really notice them unless you look for them and you pretty much have to feel for them first. The lid has a couple of minor bends on the lip were someone pryed the top off because it sticks due to a tight fit. A few scratches and little dings on the top. The bottom of the lid shows redness in the picture that is not really t, just my bad photography. I cant describe every little ding and scratch but I think you get the jist of it. I wish this were new in the box but I imagine these are hard to find in any condition. 13.5 by 11.5 inches. Dated 1953. If you live in Ohio, I have to charge tax. Thanks, Ed
