These were used in the late 30s and came in many of the advertising images of the day. From Santa to housewives and little kids or families. My mother owned an antique store in the early 1970s and had these items left over. While not a huge value, it's just a little bit more of the Coca Cola history for me personally. I knew they existed but had never found any before and to think she had these all along. While I was looking through some older pictures of the family earlier this week, there they were!

Thank you Scott!!
Just like Ray said, always look through those books and albums.. ya never know!! Nice find!!
Yep Tommy, I wasn't expecting to find Coke items even though I had known my mother had a few trays in her shop back then, I didn't know she kept anything.
She didn't either. She got more excited than me when we found them. Then I told her that they weren't worth much.
Thank you Tommy and official!
Cool story Perry, great memories for you and Mom!!
Gotta love the "wholesome", they make it sound so good!!
Yes they do Bernie! That's what I've always loved about Coke I think.
Wow! "THANKS MOM!!!!" ;)
Yep, bless her heart, at 85 years old, she just didn't remember she had any of this still.
