Size: 3 1/4" tall and 3 1/8" by 2" deep and wide
Straight from my private collection of coca cola memorabilia comes this vintage carton of miniature Cokes from around the world. The bright little collectible measures about 3 1/4" tall and 3 1/8" by 2" deep and wide. I bought it nearly 15 years ago from a dealer at the Atlanta Lakewood Antique show, and I believe it dates back to the 1950s or 60s. I'm not exactly sure as I have never seen another one.
Carton is made of hard plastic and has the Coca-Cola (Coca Cola) decal on two sides...one in English and the other in a foreign language, perhaps Hebrew. It's divided and inside are 6 little glass bottles, each with actual liquid or Coke syrup inside. Each bottle has Coca Cola decals on them; one in English and on the flip side in the international languages...Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, Hebrew...I'm guessing here...but only one is truly all American.
I believe this is a salesman sample (salesmen sample, salesman's sample) as it is just too realistic to be a toy. The bottles are each realistically made and are capped with aluminum caps (each cap also has the Coca Cola logo on the metal), and the scale appears to be exactly like the big bottles we buy at the store (or used to...remember the 16oz tall ones?? I grew up on those!)
In excellent condition, this is a rare chance to own a terrific piece of Coke memorabilia. It's free of damage or repairs and appears complete and original. The caps have some discoloration and some of the levels of the syrup in the bottles have gone down over the years (evaporated?), but it only serves to authenticate the age and authenticity. My spring cleaning is your good luck!! Bid now on this splendid piece!
