Soda Fountains
SODA FOUNTAINS
SODA FOUNTAINS, apparatus for generating and dispensing soda waters. They were developed following a demand created when a Philadelphia perfumer began to serve soda water with fruit juices soon after 1800. In 1834 in New York City, John Mathews started to manufacture machinery to make carbonated beverages. Improvements soon appeared, and about 1858 the marble fountain was invented and patented in Massachusetts. An American soda fountain was exhibited in Paris in 1867, and a popular concession at the Centennial Exposition at Philadelphia in 1876 marked it as a national institution. In 1970 more than half of the approximately fifty thousand drugstores in the United States had soda fountains. By the end of the century, carbonated drinks and their advertisements were so ubiquitous that the idea of making a special trip to the drugstore soda fountain had faded into nostalgia. The fountains themselves fetched high prices as collector's items.
