I've spent the week scanning quite a few of my earlier Coca-Cola pamphlets and booklets for earlycoke to use. And it was a good idea because now I have a lot of my items archived by complete piece, not only the cover. And in the process, I started to really read the material more closely and start to appreciate the beautiful illustrations and sepia-tone photos.
This is just a sampling of this early annual report. Amazing that items like this have survived. This is truly a history book for The Coca-Cola Company.
