Budweiser antique, need help with it! (Pic)
« on: July 14, 2013, 07:19:50 pm »
I found this item at someones curb today, seemed way to cool to let it get taken away. threw it in my truck, and brought it home, any ideas on how old this thing is, or anything about this item would be awesome!

Thank you

"Cheers"

Duplicate post...well just about...

this looks like an original Czech Budweiser ice box ..age...1930,s/50,s...value...quite high....i,d say in the region £150+...thats $225 +...maybe more...nice pickup.......i,ll amend that...could be older ..pre 1920,s....might be American....but will stick with czech....

whatever you do,do not attempt to paint the exterior....unless you intend to keep it for yourself....beer related advertising items sell very well,..especially in the US

the reason i thought it was Czech...was the Anheiser Busch bit...coupled with the fact that originally...Budwei ser..came from Czechoslovakia....a nd there has been an ongoing dispute as to the legitimacy..of American Budweiser....see link..then scroll down

Looks to me like someone already tried to "update" it with white paint at some point!
