Vintage Coca-Cola Advertising Billboard Photographs, Professionally Matted!

Description

Up for auction are these two professionally taken photographs of vintage Coca-Cola advertising billboards or signs.
The top photograph shows a vintage Coke bottle that was used from 1900 – 1916, with a dark green background.
The ad reads:
Demand the Genuine by Full Name
Drink
Coca- Cola
Delicious and Refreshing
Nicknames Encourage Substitution
The lower photograph is a Coke billboard painted on an old brick building.
Again the background is dark green, with a black holding line.
In this photograph a man in a straw hat and beige jacket is drinking a glass of Coca-Cola.
This ad reads:
Relieves
Sold Everywhere
Fatigue
5 Cents
Drink
Coca-Cola
Both photographs are approximately 3-1/2 inches x 5 inches.
They were
taken on a
semi-gloss photographic paper, both are signed in the lower right in opaque white by the photographer, Richard V. Korczynski.
The overall size of the matted photos is 8-1/8 inches x 10-1/16 inches.
The photographs sit deep beneath 2 colored mats, the top being white with some gray fibers and the inner matt is a dark green, similar to the color used in the advertisements.
The overall thickness of these matted photographs is 1/8 of an inch.
The entire matting is sealed in plastic to protect it.
I photographed my Ebay images through that plastic, as I did not want to open it.
This may have causes some light to difuse.
This is
great item for anyone that collects vintage Coca-Cola advertizing!
Hang it on the wall of your Office or Den, and display a piece of history long since past.
