1939 COCA-COLA TIN LITHO ADVERTISING TRAY \"GIRL ON A SPRINGBOARD\" UNIQUE ROUND
Price: US $179.50
Very rare and original, 1939 Coca-Cola Tin Lithographed Serving Tray known as the \"Girl on a Springboard\" Tray - this is a very odd and original variant manufactured as a round rather than an oblong Tray. This wonderful round Coke Tray measures 12\" and pictures a beautiful young woman dressed in a provocative, halter top style white bathing suit and seated on a towel draped across a striped diving board. She leans backward supporting herself with her left arm and raised a classic, 10oz bottle of Coke with her right hand. The tray is marked on the inner, decorative, silver gilt border \"Ó The Coca-Cola Co. 1939\" / \"American Art Works, Inc. Coshocton, O.\" / \"Made in U.S.A.\". This Tray features text at the top that reads “Drink Coca-Cola / Delicious and Refreshing”.


This Tray came to us with two other factory variant, Tin Litho Coke Trays / Signs which we are also offering for sale this week on . Unfortunately we do not know the source or the history behind these three fascinating pieces of advertising but offered here is the original \"skin\" of the 1939 Sundblom \"Girl on a Springboard\" manufactured as a round Serving Tray. How or why this was done we do not know - perhaps it was an experimental item or maybe just a whimsy produced at the factory but whatever the reason it was made, the result is a very unique, original tin lithograph Advertising Tray!!!


This wonderful Coca-Cola Tray is not a reproduction, reissue or restrike but is an original 1939 Serving Tray manufactured by the American Art Works, Inc. for Coca-Cola in 1939 but made as a round rather than an oblong tray.


The Tray is in very good to excellent condition - the lithography is bright and crisp - the colors bright and vibrant and the Tray displays beautifully. There are no significant scratches, scuff marks or surface nicks to the image area although there are a few small scratches. The surface retains its original, brilliant surface shine and the Tray displays beautifully. There are scattered nicks and rubs to the surface along the rolled rim but otherwise the Tray very well preserved and displays beautifully. The back side of the tray has some light surface wear only.


A very rare and perhaps unique, original 1939 Coca-Cola Tin Lithographed Round Serving Tray and a fantastic addition to any collection!!

Important Notes about Shipping Charges:

The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a $1.00 \"packing fee\" - the $1.00 fee is our only compensation for the virgin packing materials we use on all of our professionally packaged boxes as well as our cost for the salaried help that does most of our packing - as I am sure you can see, we make NO profit on the Shipping charges and, in fact, our costs are usually greater than the $1.00 fee. Please contact us if there are any issues regarding the cost of shipping.
