I need some help identifying this piece of Coca Cola advertising poster. I got it from an auction and I don’t know much about it except for what I finding online but I don’t know how to tell if it’s a replica or original? I used my DSLR Camera for the photos and did not adjust any of the colors. I used my zoom lend to get close up on some of these photos. There is one photo that has a Date of 1903 on the bottom right. There is another photo of the backing of the poster, It’s looks to be professionally glued to this board. The piece measure 17 .5 x 26 inches. I would appreciate any information regarding this piece of Coca Cola advertisement. I do have another piece that I received from the same auction and will post it as I’m looking for the same type of help on it. Please let me know if anyone needs more photos or information regarding this item.
Thank you.
The photo depicts "Lillian Norton Nordica," American Operatic Soprano" A American opera singer . I have no idea of age of your print as there are repro's being done of it and I have no idea if it is a fantasy item meaning not sure it was ever made by Coke . A Coca Cola collector will know and we have several on CW

Thanks Mankin for that information that will help and lead me to the right direction.
Your welcome and hope it leads you to answer :-)
Repro. Easy to tell. The Hutch bottle was not depicted on the original image, for example.
Thanks Daddy_Nobucks :-) I didn't think it was right so glad you jumped in !
