Hey, if "Koney" drinks it, it must be good, right? Here's an interesting ad from the "ADVERTISING" folder in the Hamilton Library's Local Collection of digital files. I was particularly interested in the bottle. Those of us who are "Coke-Heads" (as in cola) are very familiar with the famous designs on the Coke bottles over the years. Somewhere in the distant past I recall reading about a soft drink by the name of "Coca Nola." I believe it was a beverage that contained an unacceptable amount of an addictive chemical. Could "Coca Nola" have morphed into "Coca Cola?"
