found this at a flee market in New York and I had to pick it up. It has the original coca cola sign in the middle and the cast iron fountain services signs on the side rails.

What's the mystery? I see no questions !
Sorry to say, I think your bench is a 1990's issue that is heavily weathered. They were sold in Wallmart.
rocker is right.

Yep, I've seen these benches fall apart and then someone on ebay will list the cast iron sign as old or vintage or rare, I almost got fooled by one years ago but did some research and was able to back out of the auction bid I put on it thank goodness, since then I have not been fooled since!
I would love to have one so I could use our red woods that last centuries. Look great out by the pool or on my gallery. Is the metal real wrought iron on these? Think I could get just the metal parts on in "carry-on" luggage?
Sorry I burst the bubble. Whats the story on the Gypsy Sign and all the metal letters in the background?
