We see the back of the coke sign hanging in the window, and its image reflected perfectly in the mirror above the soda fountain. The unknown photographer accidentally created a work of art. In early 20th-century pharmacies, soda fountains became social hubs where Coca-Cola was served alongside medicines, helping popularize Coke as an affordable American treat and gathering place nationwide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrame Size:\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e40”x27” \u003cbr\u003eImage Size:\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e35” x 23”\u003cbr\u003eCirca 1928\u003cbr\u003eConserved Image\u003cbr\u003eLimited Edition, 1 of 150\u003cbr\u003eHand Signed and Numbered \u003cbr\u003eModern Frame, UV Protectant Acrylic Glazing\u003cbr\u003ePremium Mat Stock with Archival Inks\u003cbr\u003eSold Without Story\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';\"\u003eArtist’s Commentary\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI acquired this image in a large collection from an estate. I absolutely loved the subject matter, but the image only carried one note “Gillan’s.” Nothing else in the collection suggested a location. The reflection in the mirror that said “prescriptions” made me relatively sure this was a pharmacy. Unfortunately, I was not able to pinpoint the definitive location.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48148970930412,"sku":null,"price":980.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/8717\/7452\/files\/CokeSodaFountain_FineArtPhotography_1200x1500_MainImage.jpg?v=1786461242","url":"https:\/\/backstorygallery.com\/products\/a-coke-at-gillan-s-circa-1950","provider":"Backstory Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
