Coca-Cola 1960s Fountain Cups
Labels: Coca-Cola, Collection, Fountain Cups, History, Info 2 comments
These are Coke fountain cups that I have acquired. Also known as paper cups or dixie cups, fountain cups are used when consumers buy Coca-Cola from soda fountains. These fountain cups are from USA, however the year they are produced is not mentioned. We can determine these, by observing the design.
The first and second cup should be from a similar time period, as they bare the same slogans. They should be from 1940s to 1960s, as they bare the words "REG. U.S. PAT. OFF." The slogan "Sign of Good Taste" confirms this to be from around 1957. The third cup is obvious, from 1984.
The first and second cup is from the same time period, the second cup is a smaller "Free Sample" version of the first cup. The diamond logo design was used by Coca-Cola from 1955 to 1970. This type of diamond logo design known as the Harlequin design (multi-diamond design), however, was first used in 1966. The third cup is guessed to be from around 1963, based on the slogan "Things go better with Coke". The fourth cup is believed to be from early 1970s, when Frozen Coke was first introduced.

This is the smaller 250ml glass bottles
Comparison between 385ml and 250ml glass bottlesNotice that Coca-Cola 250ml glass bottles still uses the old metal crown cap, while the 385ml bottles are using the newer metal twist cap.
