Vintage Photos of Coca-Cola Delivery Trucks from Between the 1900s and 1950s




Over the past 100-plus years, trucks have evolved as Coca-Cola delivery trucks attest. From the solid axles to right-hand drive to the bottles exposed to the elements, this truck looks radically different than today's modern beverage delivery trucks, but still fulfills the same function--to deliver beverages to retail customers. Below is a collection of vintage photos of Coca-Cola delivery trucks from the Coca-Cola Archives.
