Along the same lines as the bottle I posted last week, here is a free drink coupon for French Wine Coca. We got this from the same person that we got the 1891 Coca-Cola trade card from, that I put on a few months ago. It came from an elderly Atlanta lady was preparing her mothers estate. The mother was handed it on the street. Pretty cool item. I love the old typography. . . . just thought I would share. Notice that it contains the same medicinal claims as the early advertisements for Coca-Cola.
One can see an element of early Coca-Cola advertising there, a precursor. Fascinating.
Relieves body and brain. Relieves exhaustion. I drink some now if I had it . . . .
Very cool to have these cards Blaine! You just don't get to see them out there now. Can you imagine just walkin down some brick street and this young boy walks up and says to ya, "this entitles you to a free drink". I love it!
