The design originated from a minnow bucket, a bucket used by fishermen to store living fish they had caught.  The company was in debt, needed to expand its product line, and a minnow bucket seemed like a sensible choice, as they were already an established maker of tackle boxes. The product failed to sell well, due to existing competition, so the bucket was used as a basis for a cooler instead. While the product was an excellent cooler, its unique bucket shape was unfamiliar to consumers used to seeing rectangular coolers, and the original styling was nothing special. In 1951 the company hired Petra Cabot to restyle the cooler. The new design featured a distinctive red, black, and yellow tartan decoration, leather look\/stitched accents, and Cobat's signature around the edge. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlease check our shop, VintasticCo, for hundreds of vintage, mid-mod, and antique items:\u003cbr\u003ehttps:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/VintasticCo","brand":"The Vintastic Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67640236736800,"sku":null,"price":102.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/8120\/6304\/files\/6abf982845442c1f256a7afa.png?v=1791198705","url":"https:\/\/vintasticcompany.com\/products\/vintage-skotch-party-bucket-tartan-plaid-cooler-petra-cabot-design","provider":"The Vintastic Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
