1950's era Coca Cola sign with pointed ends. Bob O's Hot Dogs. 8258 West Irving Park Road. Chicago Illinois. August 2010.

One of My personal all time favorite advertising icons, was the 1950's era Coca Cola logo with the pointed ends.

I was born in the city of Chicago Illinois in 1962, and could remember seeing these on everything from local lunch counter diner restaurants, gasoline stations, corner drug stores, amusement park refreshment stands, ice cream shops, drive in restaurants, and little side street Mom and Pop neighborhood grocery stores.

This timeless if not replicated example, decorates a wall at Chicago's Bob O's Hot Dogs, located at 8258 West Irving Park Road in Chicago's Acacia Park neighborhood.
