Description

The listing, Original 1940 Vintage Coca Cola Tray reduced Gin has ended.

Want to own a piece of Pure Americana? This is an Original Authentic 1940 Coca Cola Tray. Its in used Vintage shape but still a very nice piece, these trays are highly collectible & worth $$ in any shape but in mint condition they are worth top dollar. I enjoy being able to see a vintage item was well loved. I used to be obsessed with collecting coca cola items with the vintage ladies on them. I bought this tray from an antique store about 20 years ago, i bought it in the exact condition that i am selling it in, although It could use a little cleaning but i don't want to do that myself and risk taking off anymore of the paint. Besides the scratches in the center & the rust along the edges you can see the art work just fine.

i took close up pictures & added an arrow pointing to the writing on the tray. It says.. The Coca Cola Co. 1940 The American Art Works Inc Coshocton Ohio, Made in the U.S.A.
See all pictures for details

These trays are highly collectible and so cool to own, the value of them continues to rise as the years go by. its actually taken me about 2 years to finally get the gumption to list it, lol.

I took pictures of all parts of the tray so as the buyer you agree to receive this tray exactly as it is listed in AS-IS condition. No buyers remorse, i want all of my winners to be happy with what they bought.

Be careful when purchasing trays, there are a lot of the reproductions out there, some will be from the 1970's but they have newer ones that they have made as well, original trays will be selling for $600+, plus the originals have that vintage appeal that the reproductions just dont have.
Any questions feel free to ask :-) and thank you for stopping by to check out my listing.

Important info-
I use UPS and they give me a hard time about shipping to P.O. Boxes, so if you have one i will need you to send me a physical address

Hi there, idk how i didnt see your comment sorry about that. Can you meet me somewhere in the middle? Maybe at like 375? I just think if a Frozen mug can sell for 250k then my original coke tray has got to be worth a smidgen more lol i'd love for this to go to a collector, :-)

277,000 is all I have ....the bracelet you commented about that has the coke bottom on it is my auction. I would give the 277,000 & the bracelet..... let me no...

Awe thats sweet, i thought it was super adorable but if you go check out my newest listing you'll see i don't exactly need anymore Euro stuff lol but i thought your bracelet was so cute cuz of my fondness for coke stuff & my obsession with Euro beads.haha and Ohh your killin me, on the 277k lol thats just so much lower then i wanted to go, im not one to get greedy over credits or anything but let me think about it, for how much stuff is selling for lately it would be a shame not to get a little bit more for it. You can understand where im comin from right? It was tough for me to even list this. Ill letcha know & if you happen to get a bit more credits then let me know too. Thank you :-)

I totally understand, I have no way of getting the amount of credits you are asking without buying and I really don't need to do that.....I'll keep watching :)

Thank you, ill probably end up lowering the Gin if no one snags it but its so hard to know what to list stuff for these days, i wasnt sure if 800k was too high or 500k was too low. I guess stuff is only worth what people will pay ya know? Make up, coins, purses, video games & a few other items do really well on here but its so hard to know what to list collectibles for. I have been wanting to list this tray for a really long time but could never bring myself to do it. keep in touch & we'll see how things go :-)
