my partner owns a coca cola mirror which he has had for about 25 - 30 yrs. on the mirror it has the writing:
The Coca Cola Co.
Atlanta. G.A
U.S Patent Office
Trademark. January 13. 1888
Delicious & Refreshing
Could you please tell us more about it and the value if possible
Size: length 1200mm x height 740mm
That is a 1970's repo of a Early circa 1900's sign. The wood would be much more aged if it was from the early centery. I would proffesional estimate the value of this at 50 - 100 dollars because there are two markets of people that would buy this. One, someone wanting the early 1900's feel. Two, someone going retro. And three, the avid Coca Cola collector
I have one it's slightly
different bigger looks much older has a space in it that holds an advert
Not a repro-- in fact a FANTASY piece as no original like this ever existed.
Minimal decorator value but ZERO collector value.
A search on ebay will yield numerous similar examples. At times they will sell for big money to a new/ unknowing collector who has more $$ than research skills.
