 EV>> that made their Fountain Coca-Cola Soft Drink with Syrup that was in a
 EV>> large glass bottle with a plastic dispenser attached to it.
 EV>> The bottle was inverted with the dispenser on the bottom so the person
 EV>> making the softdrink just pressed a big button to put some syrup in a
 EV>> paper cup. They filled the cup with soda water (CO2 Fizz Water) and
 EV>> gave it to the customer. I can't remember if the dispenser button was
 EV>> pressed once or twice to make the soda.
 EV>> I thought that I already seen everything about how a Fountain soft drink
 EV>> was made until I walked in that Drug Store when I was 14 years old. DUH
 NB>> They were just more obvious about how it was done.... :)
 EV> The Pharmacist was an older Man, it may be that He purchased the Soda
 EV> Syrup Dispenser at His Drugs Store long before the Soda Fountain
 EV> Dispensers with Chrome Levers were manufactured. ???

Quite possible...  :)

 EV> BTW, the Dispenser attached to the Coca-Cola Bottle was made of
 EV> Plastic and had a Big Red Button, it probably was made by Coca-Cola
 EV> Corp. 

That also sounds quite possible...  :)

 EV> Coca-Cola has a Museum in Elizabethtown, Kentucky about 40 Miles from
 EV> where I live.
 EV> They probably are on the internet (everybody else is) and they
 EV> probably have a photo of the Dispenser that I am talking about.

I don't do much internet of that sort... but they might have a photo of
various early dispensers and such... it is the sort of thing one would
expect a museum to have...  ;)
