Old 7- Up wood ice chest

[SeanP]

Hi everyone. Sean here from Winnipeg MB new to the forum. Just wondering if anyones ever seen a seven up ice chest like this ? I have never seen any brands of ice chests or coolers made of wood more curious is that unless I’m crazy there are 9 bubbles as shown in one the pictures it’s 20”wide 14”deep and 15.5” tall galvanized tin lined and a lock on it
If anyone has any input at all I would appreciate it

Welcome to the forum! My guess is that this is something made locally by a 7Up franchise rather than official merchandise from the head office. Someone probably made their own stencil for it and, assuming this was during the 8-bubble era, decided it would look better to have the number of bubbles consistent in each cluster. It certainly looks like it's a very early piece of 7Up advertising!

Looks like a pirate once buried his hoard of 7-Up in that thing.
