Coca-cola 'Out Fishing' Puzzle
A 500-piece puzzle which we haven't started yet. It shows a boy out fishing with his dog and holding a bottle of Coke. This is a common design for serving trays, calendars and posters. It was also once used in a Saturday Night Post ad.

'What I want is a Coke' Puzzle
This is a puzzle we bought in a hobby shop in 2006. We have a duplicate box which is a gift of our cousin Mon. It is a replica of a 1952 poster showing a lady lounging on the beach.
The puzzle is 1000 pieces and harder than the snowman puzzle. We placed it on a long table since it is somewhat narrow and long in size. Have not touched it for over a year now. Hopefully we can finish it soon and have it framed. Several hundred pieces to go.

Coca-cola Wind-up Plane
Wind-up and battery-operated (double A batteries). Polar bear holding a Coke pilots the plane. Propeller rotates and the plane rocks, gliding left to right to the song of the `Always Coca-Cola'. Very good condition. With box intact and almost new.

A friend of the hubby's sister married a Caucasian who wants to dispose of the said toy. Gave us the item for free. :)

Coca-cola Trading Cards
If you collect Coca-cola advertising items or trading cards, you might be interested in this blog entry.
The trading cards were reproduced in 1990s and show everything that is Coca-cola for the period of 1909 to 1993: delivery trucks, advertisements, original artwork, etc. At the back of each card is a write-up and a bit of trivia.
Very useful reference for collectors who want information on vintage items.
Full set is 100. Hard to find nowadays. Manage to have a couple with duplicates, not framed.
