I collect old, authentic Coca-Cola signs and ad pieces. I love prowling eBay and pulling the trigger on a sweet BIN deal. Collectors Weekly is without a doubt the I collect old, authentic Coca-Cola signs and ad pieces. I love prowling eBay and pulling the trigger on a sweet BIN deal. Collectors Weekly is without a doubt the best site of its kind. So I hang out here, watch Pickers and The Roadshow, to enhance my collecting experience. I am a member in poor standing of the exclusive-defunct 8-Pack Club, along with TGBWC, earlycoke, Signaholic, pickrknows, tommy1002, cocacolakid97, and coke.trevor.cola. My collecting motto is: Good Times, Great Finds! daveq@wowway.com (Read more)

  1. hi Mani and Michael, Thank you! Mani - I am fine and hope you too, and that you're finding great stuff often. You are always so kind to share your knowledge. I enjoy your posts! Dave
  2. One of my favorite menu boards, late 30's-early 40's. And you're chalking it up as intended. Love it Michael, very nice. Your collection just keeps getting better!
  3. Home, sweet home. Looks super!
  4. Thank you Karen, Bernie, and Kevin. This is one page of many in a scrapbook listed on eBay, with a large price tag. Seller was kind enough to sell me just this one. The glass is very interesting, I...
  5. Thank you Trey, good to hear from you!
  6. Thank you Bernie, cheers!
  7. Thank you Michael, right back atchya brother!
  8. Merry Christmas Michael!
  9. I guess this machine is "OK"... :0) Merry Christmas Manikin!
  10. Your camera/photogrophy posts are always so well-presented and interesting (even to those of us who don't collect them). I would love to see how you have your collection displayed. It must be damn i...
  11. Great choice Michael, perfect! I love looking at your collection. So many nice things well-displayed.
  12. One of my favorite old menu boards, great find Michael.
  13. Nice find! 1940's.
  14. Another beauty Michael! Two of my favorite things. :0)
  15. Yes, this is a reprint of a rare and valuable 1905 paper sign depicting Lillian Nordica, a famous opera singer of the day, and one of the first Coca-Cola girls. The trademark detail below the logo is...
  16. I was thinking the perforated bottom was in two pieces, on either side of the brace. A combination of #1 and #3 in that link I sent (from 1926, so much later). It's and old, early box. The conditio...
  17. Great piece (and nice gift... wow!). Must have been fun to be a catcher back then!
  18. The inside looks to be slotted for a perforated false bottom (long gone), for carrying bottles neck down. Similar to #3 here: https://sha.org/bottle/Typing/IGCo1926/page166.jpg
  19. That's a beauty Leo, yes an early one and you're in the ballpark with your dating, c. 1905 safe to say. No city which might indicate use by more than one bottler. Kentucky piece maybe. Nice find!
  20. The Coca-Cola sign is Top Notch, Michael! Well done.
  21. This is the contour or "hobbleskirt" style bottle with an applied ceramic label (a screen printing process in which paints are applied directly to glass bottles and cured at high temperatures). With ...
  22. That's one hot piece Michael!
  23. I'm sure you've noticed the uneven cut/crimp on the left side border of the bottle piece. You're missing about 1/2 the green border there. Someone may have cut it to fit on the corner of a building,...
  24. Nice piece Mani! Yes similar look to the Coca-Cola girls of that era. Her right hand looks like you could fit a small bottle in it!! :0)
  25. More likely two signs pieced together. Frankensign. Still cool.
  26. Very scarce sign Michael, I've not seen that version before. Nice snag and looks wonderful!

  28. Hi Mani! Thank you and you too!!
  29. Congrats on this acquisition, very interesting piece!
  30. Nice pad Michael! :0)
  31. Great piece Scott!
  32. Thanks Coke1234! Hope your wheels are taking you to good deals, your garage is incredible. And I love that Shell side table! :0)
  33. Thank you Michael, always on the look out. My collecting has slowed down quite a bit, so I enjoy the sweet pieces you post!
  34. Thanks Bernie! You've been adding some killer stuff to your collection lately, nice to see.
  35. The slogan is from 1963. Looks to be in original condition.
  36. Looks to be a 1970's Meisel print (Lillian Nordica, an opera singer, one of the first "Coca-Cola girls" around turn of century). https://www.etsy.com/listing/263652281
  37. Looking forward to seeing the finished project Bernie! Nice!!!
  38. Cold outside but warm in the garage, I bet. That's a hot collection Michael. Looks like a fun place to hang out.
  39. Merry Christmas Miss Mani. Great post!!!
  40. AM is Allen-Morrison Sign Co., 86 is a production date code. Many believe the numbers are month and last digit of year of manufacture, so Aug 1956 in this case. These button signs are very collectib...
  41. Super button Bern!
  42. Beautiful sign Michael! Hard to find the white buttons and even harder in this size.
  43. Excellent additions Michael, your place looks amazing. Golgatha, America is a large nation (228 times the size of Denmark). There are nearly 15,000 cities, towns, and municipalities. 75% have po...
  44. Well done Michael! She is a beauty.
  45. Agreed, Bern, the pandemic has definitely knocked back opportunities. Looks like you're making up for lost time with this bundle. Nice job! Great stuff!!
  46. Nice haul Bernie!
  47. VERY nice Michael and I especially love the stogie sign! :0)
  48. Super machine that displays well with your incredible collection. Definitely a high WOW Factor!
  49. Nifty! Coke Classic in 1985 and the "Can't Beat the Feeling" ad campaign is late 80's.
  50. Thanks Coke1234, I still enjoy this one.
