Early soda advertising for your kitchen collection

Explore the history of a familiar drinks brand with this reproduction of a 1919 Coca-Cola advertisement from The Canadian Grocer. Its publication and date give it a specific identity within a collection of vintage food-and-drink advertising. Choose it for a kitchen, breakfast nook or home bar, or bring it into a gallery wall connecting everyday products with their commercial history.

About the advertisement

Addressed to retailers, the advertisement uses the question “Will you have it when they call?” as a reminder to keep Coca-Cola available for customers. That direct appeal offers an insight into the practical purpose behind the design: encouraging shops to have the drink in stock. For collectors, it provides a different perspective from an advertisement aimed solely at the person buying a beverage.

Create a personal refreshment corner

Imagine displaying the print near a kitchen table, with warm wooden shelves, softly textured linen and a favourite glass ready for a refreshing drink. It can introduce a historical brand connection into an everyday room without requiring the entire space to follow a diner theme. The recorded red, beige and blue palette offers a starting point for coordinating accessories or companion prints in related tones.

A smaller format can join an established gallery arrangement, while a larger print gives the advertisement a more prominent place. Pairing it with a biscuit poster or tea-time illustration creates a shared food-and-drink connection across different dates and settings. Consider your available wall space and surrounding furniture before choosing the size for your display.

Paper, printing and finish

This product is a reproduction, not an original magazine advertisement from 1919. It is produced using giclée printing on 200gsm matte art paper with a matte finish. Select a print-only version if you would like to use your own frame, or choose a framed option with a black wooden frame and white mount. Three paper sizes provide flexibility for an individual advertising feature or a grouped vintage-poster wall.

Choose your size

  • Small: 11 × 14 in, available as a print only or framed.
  • Medium: 12 × 16 in, available as a print only or framed.
  • Large: 18 × 24 in, available as a print only or framed.
  • Framed options include a black wooden frame and white mount. Select your preferred size and finish above.

Pair it with

Continue the vintage food-and-drink theme with Alphonse Mucha’s Biscuits Lefèvre-Utile poster (1896) and Harrison Fisher’s Afternoon Tea cover (1925). For a home-bar display exploring a different beverage advertisement, add the Klosterpils German beer poster (c. 1900s).
