Blue Moon Storage Box Appraisal

Blue Moon Branded Wooden Cooler or Storage Box

This item is a wooden cooler or storage box, featuring prominent branding for 'Blue Moon' beer. The construction appears to be entirely of wood, likely a light-colored softwood such as pine, assembled from numerous individual slats. The top surface consists of planks laid horizontally, forming a flat lid, with the 'Blue Moon' logo etched, carved, or branded directly into the wood. The logo depicts the brand name 'BLUE MOON' in a distinctive font, overlaid on a banner, all contained within a circular, textured backdrop that resembles an orange slice with radiating lines, consistent with Blue Moon's iconic imagery. The sides of the box are also constructed from vertical wooden slats, creating a rustic and slatted aesthetic. The color of the wood is a natural, unpainted light brown, showcasing the wood grain. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like cracks or large gouges, though minor wear, scuffs, or slight discoloration typical of used wooden furniture may be present upon closer inspection. The fasteners holding the slats together are not clearly visible, suggesting they might be internal or small nails/screws. The overall condition appears good, with the wood presenting a clean, albeit possibly unfinished or lightly sealed, surface. Without seeing the interior, it's hard to definitively determine if it's lined for insulation (as a cooler) or simply a storage chest. Its style is casual and rustic, likely intended for promotional use or as home bar decor. The estimated age would be relatively modern, corresponding to the Blue Moon brand's widespread popularity, likely produced in the last 20-30 years.
