I have a 1956 GE combonation fridge that I restored. I love it! But it is not keeping things very cold these ultimate few days. Does it need freon? I have be using it for about a year now near no problems. If it does need freon, how do I put it in?

if theirs no service ports, they can be added to charge the system. you have need of to have a tech put a set of guages on it to check pressure. it takes a different refrigerant that may be available in a minute. i know it wont take r 22 , 410 or 134a for autos. certified ge repairman is the one id give the name. Isnt' that the year when they required a block of ice to keep things cold. (The artistic "Ice Box")?
