QUIKOLD

The Quikold company made chest type floor model soda coolers for general stores. Based in the mid-west United States they were a child of the larger S&S Company of Lima Ohio. Throughout the years many different types and styles were produced including self-serve ice only models all the way up to coin operated electric cool devices. Of particular interest to collectors are the older "Ice Only" versions that were embossed with the name a soda company and used as in-store marketing for that brand. This version of Quikold's product were produced in the late 30's and through the 1940's. These chest type coolers came in many different sizes including Juniors, Standards and Masters. Many collectors covet the smaller sized coolers such as the Juniors and Standards.
