WOW what can I say about this little GEM!!! This is a rare find of an early COCA COLA advertisment. The card when open is 5 1/4 by 6 3/4. The outer card has the following printed in black ink:

Drink Bottled Coca Cola at the ball game! At the dances! At the beaches! ON THE BOATS --- And at home! Everyw you'll find that " Ice Cold Bottle of Coca-Cola calling you! Full of Real Delicious Goodness from our modern factory to you, untouched by human hands.

Then when you open the card, inside is a colored lithograph of a man's face whose lips open and inside his mouth is the words " bottled COCA COLA" On the side of his face is printed: " Every time this Old Boy opens his mouth he says something!" below that is "Orlando Coca Cola Bottling Co. In very tiny print in the lower right corner is printed: " No. 89. Pat Applied for Spot. Spec. Co. Lex. KY.

The man is holding a bottle of Coca Cola and the bottle has imprinted " Coca Cola Trademark Registered Bottle Patd Nov 6 1915"

My guess this is Orlando Florida Bottling Company, and this ad is from 1915 or a few years after. Condition of the ad is good. T is some scuffing and bumping on the edges wich would be normal for it's age. T is some of the top layer of the outer missing maybe from tape being removed or other sticky substance. (see photo). T is about 12 tear along the fold line on the upper part of the card which does hit the man's hat/top of head. The card is aged colored and some light soiling. The corners of the folding lips/mouth do have scuffing and bumps, but not bad again for it's age.

The color of the man's face is very good. T is some very light pencil writing on the outside of the card, but I can not make it out and it is very light.

This is a truly awesome Coca Cola advertiser, full of humor, color, and fun!! A great addition to your Coca Cola collection and NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!! Woo Hoo what a deal!!!!!

Please email me with questions. Ohio residents to pay sales tax unless tax exempt number is provided!! If this little guy sells for a great price, I will pay for mailing and insurance, so if you win bid....wait for invoice!!!!!!!! Thank you for looking..........

The tear on the crease is about 1/2" (not 12, it was a type error in the description).......
