Oval lithographed metal serving tray, circa 1910’s- 1920’s, featuring a portrait of a Victorian-era woman in bonnet and lace, set against a dark ground with “Drink Coca-Cola Delicious and Refreshing” script at right. Classic early advertising format with softly rendered portraiture and period typography, housed in a rolled-edge black rim. Reverse shows original olive green painted surface.
Surface wear and age-related patina throughout, including visible rust spotting, finish loss, and scattered scratches to the image field. Tray has one notable dent in the edge as seen in photographs. Graphics remain legible with moderate overall wear consistent with age. Reverse shows oxidation and scuffing. Structurally sound.
