I loved the imagery on this item for years, so I had to get it when it became available. This is the centerpiece of the festoon. On either end there were a series of colorful cardboard balloons. Someday I will find those as well . . . . but I am not holding my breath.
Boy that's an early festoon centerpiece! Great find Blaine.
c. 1912, "Balloons". That's one sweet piece of early Coca-Cola advertisement.
Looks great for 100 years old!! Those side pieces are out there somewhere, just waiting for you!
Great piece of history Blaine, another treasure we'd likely never see but for you!
Thanks guys. I am glad you like it. I think the unusual costumes and the hats make it simply fascinating. A lot different than the usual Coke stuff we see . . .
Wonderful!
