HOW GOOD ARE MY OLD FRIENDS
« on: April 25, 2010, 12:07:06 AM »
Well i had a text message from my best mate since primary school he was at a garage sale and seen an old COKE MIRROR.  How much should i offer them for this.  I told him $30 that way if its only a reproduction he still got his moneys worth.   Rocked up at a party and when he arrives he handed me the mirror for my shed.  Im no expert but there is no way its a reproduction as parts of the art have lifted off the glass just like an old backglass would.


  What do you guys and girls think is this original or Repro.   Its not for sale but very interested to find out either way

must be a very early original.

because back in the day, that ugly woman in the middle was probably the latest centrefold.  @.@ @.@ @.@

probably not an easy item to replace.  ^^^

I really like those sort of items. There's one on local ebay

There goes my estimate, you wouldnt get 2 originals of these unless they are fairly recently made. I really thought it was a 1930's item before pinnies posted that.
