Coca-Cola® Picnic Cooler

SPECIAL VALUE AT $189.95

Cool, Calming and Collectible. Recalling a slower time when Elvis rocked, James Dean strutted and Cokes cost 10 cents, this sleek Coca-Cola® Picnic Cooler with its chrome accents—corners, top edge, handle and locking bar—will elicit appreciative whistles while keeping party beverages chilled. A smaller replica of the all-steel “six pack” coolers of the 1940s-1950s, this functional collectible features a built-in bottle opener. Scratch and rust resistant heavy-gauge steel and aluminum; insulated interior.  14"h. x 11.5"w. x 9"d.
