    Description

    Authentic Original 1953 COCA-COLA Metal Serving TRAY - "Thirst Knows No Season"
    One of most iconic of the Coca Cola trays – the ‘Menu Girl’. produced in 1953.  Although the menu girl had been used in Coca Cola advertising from 1950, she first adorned the tray  in 1953. The tray shows a beautiful young woman at a soda counter holding a Coca-Cola bottle and a menu.
    Unlike most Coca-Cola trays that had a solid-colored inner rim (usually red), this tray depicts the four seasons around its border with different sporting and holiday images. Around the rim it reads: “Thirst knows no season” and “Have a Coke”.  The words “Trade Mark Reg. US Pat Off” appear below the words Coca-Cola in the trademark.
    The tray measures approx. 10 ½  inches X 13 ¼ inches and approx. 1 inch deep.
    Although it’s not a particularly rare tray, it is still very desirable especially in such good condition.
    A real treat the Coca Cola collector.
