ITEM DESCRIPTION:

The Chewing Gum Wonder of the 19th Century is the claim of this early paper poster advertising Sol. Coleman's Ko-Ko Tulu Special Gum. The chewing gum brand was patented in 1885, and this poster dates from the late 1880's. It features a Victorian era girl with her hair in a bonnet with the gum name above her and the price for a bundle below. Ko-Ko Tulu Chewing Gum was manufactured in Memphis, Tennessee by Sol. Coleman and was very popular across the country. This paper poster has been professionally framed and matted to provide years of enjoyment. The paper ad itself is eleven inches tall by seven inches wide. The colors are great and the only blemish we see is a small bend in the lower right corner. 9915-QTP
