Forgotten New York

COCA METRO

This faded Coca-Cola ad has held forth on the south side of Metropolitan Avenue near 73rd Street in Middle Village for just either side of a century by now. The beverage company, established in 1887, has rendered its name in “Spencerian Script” since the very beginning, with some tweaks here and there, and variants in other aspects of the logo… but the written name has remained basically the same.
