Coca-Cola Coke Swap Card Playing Cards

Additional Information:
Swap cards are, simply put, individual playing cards. Collecting these cards became a favorite past-time during the 1930s through the 1950s and then, in this country anyway, seemed to taper off. Today collecting swap cards is extremely popular in Australia.

The collecting of swap cards can be equated to collecting stamps, coins, baseball cards or postcard cards. There were many types and designs from the very old (pre-1900) wide poker cards to the early variations that were round and odd shaped. Later came the smaller cards, supposedly for the ladies, called bridge cards. They were not as wide so they were easier to hold in a woman's hand.

Most people collected by groups such as animals and more specifically, dogs, cats, horses, etc., while others collected Art Deco or Art Nouveau designs or patriotic or advertising themes or even transportation methods such as trains, planes and automobiles. Some people collected just the Aces, or Jokers or blank backs while others took to a favorite suit, hearts, diamonds, clubs or spades or even a favorite number.

Whatever you favorite; here is a chance to add to your collection or start a new one. You will love these old cards.

Here we have a collection of five (5) cards featuring the world's favorite soft drink; Coca-Cola. The cards represented are as follows:

• Matching Pair of Patriotic Women ~ These cards were made in 1943
• Single Card front Slogan "Drink Coca-Cola in Bottles" introduced in 1910 and the back slogan of "The Pause that Refreshes" was introduced in 1929.  The card was actually produced in 1939.
• The last two cards have identical fronts and were also issued during World War II in 1943.

As stated these cards date from 1939 and 1943 and are in excellent condition. As you can see from the pictures there are two Extra Jokers and three addition cards for a total of five cards.

These classic pictures are always wonderful to look at!
