    I have found a can while cleaning out my MIL's house with nineteen mould plates that have Coca Cola advertising. Most are 2" x 2" but the largest are 2" x 4". They appear to be lead with a copper coating and have three or four pinholes in each plate as if they were attached to something. The printing is reversed on all. Can anyone help me on the age of these tags and what they would have been used for?

      They are copper printing blocks-- originally attached to small wood blocks.

      20th century.

      Some of the coke collectors may be able to narrow to specific time periods based on the motif of the block.

      What is the smallest price in numerical amt. on these. Used to be $0.05 cents WAY back when--so was Pepsi I believe (but that have been at the "soda fountain" teens or 1920s?

      Very Cool. Based on the images and trademark detail, 1940's-1950's newspaper print plates. Great collection to stumble upon.

      Thanks to all for the information. They are indeed very cool. I will contact a Coca Cola collector to establish dates.

      You already received input from a top coke collector-- see posting #4.
