I thought I would do some plaques to go with my coca cola collection.

Very nice, Bob!

I did a Coke plaque awhile back for our Coca-Cola themed game room. We have a good bit of Coke memorabilia too - including a working, circa 1930 chest-type dime Coke machine dispenser.

Here's a pic of the plaque and some of the machine when it was in my garage after I cleaned it up and put on a new power cord. Was extremely suprised that it still worked. It was from my dad's old drugstore in Winslow, Arizona and had been in storage for nearly 25 years in my folks' basement after the drugstore burned down. We had it transported from Arizona a few years ago and it now resides in our gameroom where we keep it stocked with bottled water - still costs a dime to get a bottle out!

Thanks Michael
That is a Awsom sign! I have always wanted a Coke machine dispenser, I have run across a lot but always too much money. I have about 500 advertizeings that I can carve from. I have picked about a dozen to try so far.

Here's a great Coca Cola font if anyone's interested...

Thanks for posting that...that's the font I used for my Coke plaque.

I do recall I had to make one of the "C's" by hand in CorelDraw to match the old-fashioned coke logo, though.

I can't remember which one it is, but one of the numbers on your keyboard makes the correct C.

Found it accidentally by going thru all keys to see which were used with the font.

(I actually know something the Great One doesn't - woo hoo!!)

Edit - it's the number 1 on your keyboard

Where were you when I needed you??

(the "Great One" - now that's funny!)

THAT would have cost you $50

For all of you Coca-Cola memorabilia fans, you should check out any Cracker Barrel restaurant. I am not sure if they are a nation-wide chain or not, but we gots em' down in the greatest country in the world...Texas.

It's half restaurant and half "general store." They carry a plethora of Coca-Cola nick-nacks (spell check).

Spelling's forgiven, considering where you're from

No offense, of course, to our friends at LHR
