Coca Cola Girls

I checked a book out of the library last week called Coca-Cola Girls- An Advertising Art History.  It's stuffed full of beautiful photos of vintage Coca-Cola advertisements with the 'Coca-Cola girls'.  I haven't had a chance to read the book yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

In the meantime I wanted to share some of the vintage ads.  Here's several made for overseas advertising.


Coca-Cola has done some ad campaigns lately mixing vintage with modern.  Here's an example of a Cola-Cola ad with Taylor Swift dressed to look like a Coca-Cola girl.

Another thing they have done is using the actual vintage ads to digitally create a 're-mix'




















I think this is a fun way to integrate history with modern advertising techniques.  I can't wait to see what else they come out with!

  1. That's cool! I haven't seen any of those Coke ads lately. I'll keep a look out now ;)
