Jodie- this is what is considered a Coca Cola fantasy item. Not old and my guess is 1980's or 1990's with classic advertising themes.
The type of light it is on is slag glass with brass around the glass. The lamp itself is old. I found ones from the 1980-1990 and they are nothing like this. The lamp it is on and the photos on the glass are the remake photos that were done in the 70s. The ones on mine are the original photos from 1912 and 1924 (the two I could find- the other ones I have yet to find)
Thanks, I was more looking to see if anyone had seen something like this before or even similar as I have found nothing. I'm going to bring it to Pawn Stars in Vegas and see what they can tell me
Rick or The Old Man will know for sure. Look forward to seeing that episode! ;0)
Here's some info,

fairly common item I suspect.
That's the one from the 80-90 and is only for one piece of glass. It's the remake of the photos not the originalw ones

They've got a great record on Coke items-- one of the guys thought these FANTASY pieces were real:

If they offer you more than a couple dollars for it, jump on it-- you're making out like a bandit!

Birder, I guarantee you if you're lamp was the real deal it would have several loves or likes. You need to take the opinions of the professionals here, there're not trying to hurt you or discourage you in anyway. Honest you're lamp is not real it's a reproduction.
