Cavelier 102 Segregation Era 2 Sided Coke Machine

THE HOLY GRAIL of cavelier Machines!! Another Investment Grade Highly Sought After Collectible Brought To You By Collector-Concierge-International In Partnership With Our Europe, UK, UAE Distribution Partner Bennies Fifties Store & Our Shanghai China Distribution Partner Smiths Antiques. THIS IS THE BEST KNOWN original and only. DOUBLE SIDED pop machine ever made.

Among advanced collector this is known as the segregation machine. It is sad this is part of history as there are many pictures of these machines with signs indicating whites on one side and blacks on the other.

Although there are claims bottlers provided such signs by some i cannot substantiate this. It is my opinion such signs were made by location owners. At any rate here is not only one of the coolest looking machines ever made, but one with a truly amazing story of American history in accompaniment. These machines are a cross collectible not only highly sought after by advanced soda machine collectors, but also black Americana collectors.

Made by the Cavalier Company exclusively for Coca-Cola, 1 run of 500 units were made in July of 1953, no more were ever produced. Today there are probably less than 25 in existence. Some claim less than 12? The Cavalier 102 is essentially two Cavalier 51 machines back to back so the machine can vend from both sides. Like the Cavalier 51 the 102 has a unique belt driven vending mechanism.

The bottle doors, coin bezel, and bottle cap removal bezel are typically chromed. All Cavalier-102 models came with the words Drink Coca-Cola embossed on the top and in bold letters ICE COLD on the bottom.

FOR the DISCERNING Collector that demands the rarest and the best. One of the most unique and rare historic vending machines in existence. Super rare and incredibly desirable for historic vending machine collectors and advanced Coca-Cola Collectors. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. These almost never come up for sale, and certainly not the best known example IT DOES NOT GET BETTER THAN THIS.

If you want the best of the best that is sure to only appreciate in value and be the focal point in the most stunning of collections, this is the piece for you!
