STOP PRESS - 1936 COCA-COLA CANS APEARED!

Until now there was only one bad pic of 32 oz Coca-Cola cone top can form 1936 at Coke Can History. But, thinking she was only taking low interest pic at Design Museum at Pathersol, Belgium. How many people saw these cans and noted nothing is amazing. Thanks to "loic4467" whoever she or he is, for sharing this historical rescue picture. I'm sharing with you at maximum resolution availlable. Clic on pic to open very big size.

At this moment we can't say that Coca-Cola really marketed its product in these cans somewere, or these are really only test market cans. As we know, many times in history, Coca-Cola depolyed strange packs, bottles and cans, locally, in small or medium cittys to test the accpetance and the produtction system for this specific pack. Almost all of them did no entered in the market after test period.


Até agora havia apenas uma imagem muito ruim de uma lata "cone top" de 1936 da Coca-Cola, no site com o link lá em cima. Mas alguém colocou no Flickr esta foto das duas latas que estão no Museu do Design, na Bélgica. Sinceramente, quase ninguém sabia que isso existiu. Era curioso tentar entender por que a Coca-Cola abriu mão de usar a mais moderna tecnologia de embalagem da época, enquanto diversas outras marcas usavam "cone tops".

Fico imaginando quantas pessoas passaram pelo Museu do Design e as estranhas latas da Coca-Cola não lhes disseram nada: como se fosse outra latinha qualquer. Bem, a história está sendo resgatada e aguardamos uma posição oficial da Coca-Cola sobre o uso destas latas.

Neste momento não podemos afirmar que estas latas são apenas latas de teste que nunca entraram no mercado ou se são latas de teste de mercado regional, tendo sido realmente comercializadas em algum lugar por algum tempo até a empresa achar que não ia dar certo.

16 oz, a lata menor, são 450 ml, uma medida enorme para a época e 32 oz são 900 ml, praticamente o litro, numa época, 1936, onde as garrafas de 180 ml ainda reinavam absolutas a 5 centavos. É provável que estas grandes embalagens estivessem muito a frente de seu tempo e deviam ser caras.

Buy a McDonald's combo with Fanta orange 500 ml and you receive this box of two new flavors for Brazillian market. Coca-Cola wants you to vote and maybe people choice will be respected. Strawberry is great (for me).

There’s no shortage of Coke ghost signs in the city and this one resides on the side of a brownstone on the corner of Rutland Square and Columbus Ave in the South End. Strangely enough it’s paired up with another aging painted sign on the same wall – a vintage logo of longtime rival Pepsi. (#86 of 100 in the Boston Signage Project)
