I havent been on this forum for a while, so I thought I would share some of my recent Coca-Cola acquisitions. This is a 1911 Motor Girl Poster. Fairly rare item. It is approximately 17x20. Condition is probably Excellent Plus. I have her hanging in my office to the right of a 1912 paper poster (shown on the right). One is on each side of the window in exactly the same type of frame and mounting. I see "the girls" every time I sit down at my desk. I really love these pieces. The depth and quality of the chromolithograph printing makes them really stunning up close. I know most of you collect the metal signs and such, but I thought you would appreciate these as well . . . .

Nice Limited Edition reprints Blaine. Are they signed and numbered too?
Beautiful artwork and great frames also. Are they orig. or ? Great inspiration for getting the "work" done Blaine!
You are a funny funny man Ray. How is your Beanie Baby collection coming along?
Yes pickrknows. They are totally original. I have nothing reproduction in my collection. And the fact that I am always broke proves it!
Nice that your wife lets you display pictures of your girlfriends! :) Those are a super sweet pair, no doubt about it.
And the bar has been raised yet again!! Beautiful pieces.
Love the photos. My favorite one on the right.
Thanks kmvailes, I like the one on the right as well. She also comes in a slightly less rare version with a pink bow. I imagine it would be greedy to wish I had that one as well! I am glad you like them.
