Any ice cream/soda fountain collectors on here?
This is a lengthy for sale ad,and I apologize for that,but I thought it best to list everything I have here,instead of individual multiple ads.
I'd like to sell everything as one lot,but for now I'll price each item individually.
I grew up with Prince Castle/Cock Robin ice cream stores here in Illinois as a kid.
In 1985,I bought a bunch of items from our local Cock Robin,which was going out of business.
They are all defunct today,as the very last Cock Robin closed it' doors many years ago.
I planned on making my own soda fountain,but 27 years later,I realize I don't have the room I thought I would among everything else I collect,so it's time to let all this go.
I can bring any of these items to Peotone next month or MCACN in November as well.
Thanks for looking..

Multimixers,Manufactured by Prince Castle Mfr.,this was the recommended work horse mixing machine used by all the McDonalds,Prince Castle & Cock Robin restaurants during the the last 60 years.
Ray Croc used to sell these for a living,until one day when the McDonalds bros.of Calif. ordered 6 of them for their local hamburger business.He had to see what type of a business would need such a large amount of machinery.Upon his arrival he was astounded to see the booming business the McDonald Bros.had made for themselves.He soon purchased their restaraunt,and the rest is history.
These 2 original Multimixers are in very good working condition.One Jadite Green,the other Bahama Beige.They have never been rebuilt,modified,painted or abused.Always thoroughly cleaned and wiped down,and the main motors bearings & each individual spindles bearings were oiled routinely all their life.They still have their original cords & plugs,and wear the original Prince Castle Mfr. tag too,with serial & model #.Nothing has been replaced from what I can see.The removeable service top cover does show some wear,and there are a few dents on one,but that has been left alone as well as the rest has not been modified in anyway.These are the earlier models too,with the ID tag attached on the inside bottom,squared base & an ON/OFF switch mounted on the bottom with an inside power light that illuminates only when the power is turned on.
Later these would only turn on/off as each individual malt cylinder was engaged up into the spindle.
Both serial #'s are also very low,that backs this up.
5 spindle Jadite Green unrestored original paint,original cord,working Prince castle Multimixer.
One of the first units ever made and it has the light underneath inside as well.Come with 5 original stainless steel malt cylinders & original operating manual and a not often seen Cleaning cup with bristles to clean each spindle too.Asking $400
