Sign In to see what this sold for

The carrying case is 9" x 9" x 8" deep, the actual sample unit stands 7 1/2" tall on its wooden base; this a wonderfully interesting item from the 1960's; initially this was designed to contain batteries, when the button is depressed on the right side of the wooden base, the customer side of the dispenser with the soda glass insert would light; the piece displays nicely; minor warping and delamination occurred on the two Mylar panels front and back at some point in the past, but they have been effectively re-adhered by the archivist; only light wear; some darkening to the one side of the dispenser near the word "Ice" on the old decal; general overall light wear; paint nicks and soiling on the carrying case; condition 7 1/2+/VG
