Right. This is the iconic 1905 image of Lillian Nordica, a famous opera singer of the day, who was one of the first Coca-Cola girls. Ooo-la-la. Many ad pieces were manufactured showing this pose of Dame Lillian holding a ostrictch feather fan, lovingly gazing up a glass of Delicious and Refreshing. Calendars, bookmarks, coupon-ads, signs... Olga, Yours unfortunately is not one of them. Mr. Fifties is correct, your poster is a reproduction item. Still, since it was your grandparents', it has sentimental value and would look nice framed for display. earlycoke.com has a great reference page which mentions your poster:
