Coca-Cola (commercial, 1954)

This is the both, okay, babe. Okay, boss. But you know what day Monday is, don't you? It's Washington's birthday. And I can't think of a better time to have a party, because the holiday decorations for this party can be so beautiful.

And we have the whole weekend ahead of us to plan it. So I suggest that, uh, let's have this party and have the children help you get the preparations ready, because that's the most fun.

And yours should begin tomorrow, and something like this. Well, well, look who's here. It's two of my favorite people. Hey kids, what are you going to do with all those cartons of coke? Oh, hi Bob.

We're going to have a party. A Georgian Martha Washington party. Well, of course you couldn't have a Georgian Martha Washington party without plenty of cartons of coke now, could you? No! Yes, well that's the way the party starts.

And you know, all day those cartons of coke over there are going to be going out of the store because there's a long holiday weekend ahead and that means plenty of parties. In fact, every time I see a hand reach in and pick up a carton of coke, I know that somebody's in for a lot of fun, a lot of enjoyment.

Yes, tell the truth. Don't you enjoy just about any occasion a whole lot more, along with a frosty cold bottle of Coca-Cola, because Coke in the bottle is a natural at parties. Yes, you enjoy that wonderful flavor and there's nothing like it because Coke in the bottle is an exclusive blend.

You see, nobody else has the secret. An exclusive blend of delicious natural flavorings. There's no substitute for a bottle of coke, just as there are no substitutes in a bottle of coke. No, there's not a drop of imitation coloring or flavoring ever in a bottle of Coca-Cola.
