I have a metal Belding Hall co ice box. I have searched the Web to find information. But I’m only finning pictures and information regarding wood ones! I am presuming they started to create the metal ones just prior to the company closing!! But again I cannot find anything to support this..HELP!
Have pictures but files are to big to download.
From what I could gather (and there isn`t much about their products) The metal ice boxes were a short term item likely produced while transitioning from block ice and wood to electricity !! Its worth keeping in my opinion !! Many of these wound up in the local garbage site once electric refrigerators could be purchased !! I would say you could get around $500. as-is !!
Interesting that your Mom worked there !!
The building that Hall owned was in poor condition and the city threatened the current owner to either make repairs or the city would take over and do it !! It is//was a huge complex and was at one time the largest refrigeration company in the area !! Perhaps that where the floor grate came from,, the renovation !!
