Coca-cola: Amazing Ways To Become An American Icon

By:


Some of the best art for advertisements can be found in those great Coca Cola commercials of the past. Since their inception, the Coca-Cola Company has attracted great illustrators and artists, such as Jim Harrison, Norman Rockwell and many others. Their work can be seen in years past through these advertisements.

Since the 1930's, the magazine National Geographic has published Coca Cola prints on their back covers for seven months out of the year. On the months of February, April, June, July, August, October, and December, these special advertisements for the soft drink company would appear. Created by renowned artist within each era, these vintage images are now collectable works of art. Haddon Sundblom's December images are the most highly prized of the collection, depicting jolly St. Nick with his Coca Cola beverage. Nonetheless, every piece of artwork is amazing in itself, each captured in a silver 8x10 frame to be enjoyed for years to come.

These evocative magazine advertisements depict the times and capture traditional images from America's wartime involvement, as well as the mood and events at home. National Geographic Covers make wonderful decorative prints that can adorn a wall or sit on a desk or table. They make thoughtful gifts and are a welcome addition to any room's decorating scheme.

Antique and older, one-of-a-kind Coca Cola collectibles are also in high demand. Everyone who likes to collect Coke products will love the large selection of soda pop collectibles available with the Coca Cola logo. They can select from 50s Coke collectibles, Coca Cola signs to trays, clocks to lamps, vintage vending machines to wallpaper, glasses to dishes, furniture to coolers...all kinds of Coke products.

One of the most popular aspects of this niche are the promotional toys the company made over the years. People of all ages treasure Coca-Cola toys. There are collectibles such as board games, jigsaw puzzles, toy banks, scrapbooks and similar materials, trucks, teddy bears including the newer Boyd's bears, and of course Coca-Cola bottles (even in miniature size).

If you know someone who collects Coca Cola products, these items will make great gifts for any occasion.
