    Coca cola drinking glass with gold trim with Country/State name and cities and coca cola written on them as well in the language of that Country. This is a set of 8 which includes Mexico, Japan, Spain, England, France, Germany, Hawaii and Italy.
    I'm hoping to find more information about them. They have been in our family since my mom worked at Coca Cola in Tacoma in the early 60s. There doesn't seem to be much information about these anywhere. I believe they were considered an Advertising Set and never sold. They seem to be extremely rare. The glasses are in excellent condition as they were never used. Any information anyone has would be appreciated.

      During the late 1960's Coca-Cola put out a series of branded promotional glassware sets in conjunction with "World" ad campaigns. I believe this tumbler set is referred to as "Around the World" and included a wire service holder.

      Thank you so much. I appreciate it. I had searched eBay numerous times and could never find anything. Do you know if the glasses were given to consumers as a promotion or were they sold? My mom said she had not seen the wire holders. Now she wants to find two of those. ???? thank you again?

      I just purchased a set of these glasses, except there are two Italy's and no Spain. I found a seller on Etsy who has a Spain but her measurements don't match mine...do you know if they were sold in more than one size? The ones I have are 6.5" and the one she has is 5.5"? But otherwise they're identical.
