Vintage rectangular reverse-painted glass advertising sign featuring a deep red ground with bold yellow lettering reading “Coke 5¢ at the Fountain.” The graphic is applied to the reverse of the glass, preserving the smooth glossy face and giving the colors a rich, saturated appearance. A simple yellow line border with corner accents frames the composition, while the rounded rectangular format recalls classic soda-fountain advertising. Condition shows substantial age-related wear including scuffs and scratches to the glass surface, edge wear, staining, and visible losses, flaking, and deterioration to portions of the reverse-painted decoration, particularly near the edges and corners. Measures 12"H x 31.5"W.
