Description
An assortment of vintage-style advertising and soda fountain items primarily themed around the Carnation and Coca-Cola brands. The collection features a pedestal-style dry powder dispenser, a glass straw holder, and several plastic novelty items. The powder dispenser is constructed from red and white plastic and metal, designed for countertop use. The upper red hopper is printed with the Carnation script logo, three carnation flowers, and the text for HOT CHOCOLATE in white. It is supported by a streamlined white pedestal base with a manual dispensing lever on the side. The straw dispenser consists of a clear ribbed glass body decorated with a red screen-printed Coca-Cola script logo and the phrase Delicious and Refreshing. It features a chrome-plated metal lid with an integrated internal lift mechanism. Several red and white striped plastic straws are included. A gold foil sticker on the lid is marked MADE IN TAIWAN. The novelty items include a salt and pepper shaker set molded in the form of vintage gasoline pumps. These red and white plastic shakers feature Drink Coca-Cola and Have a Coke branding and sit within a dedicated plastic carrier topped with a circular Coca-Cola sign. Also included is a miniature red plastic replica of a vintage bottle vending machine. This item features white Coca-Cola script and ICE COLD lettering, a molded bottle opener, and a winding key on the side, suggesting a musical or mechanical function.
