All right. so here we go.
My older brother started a coke can collection back in like the late 80s. I later got it and added for a little. Now I have dug it out. I kinda wish I had stuck to it. There has been so much new stuff since this. I think at least a few cans have disappeared over the years though.

Here are a few coke cans. I think that second one in from the left is weird. It's got like a thing black line spiraling down it. These are just regular cans. Nothing to crazy on them.
Now for the diet coke.

I don't drink diet coke. To be honest I'm not really sure what a can of diet coke looks like nowadays? does it even come in a can now? Who knows. who cares. Classic is the way to go.
Once again their is that spiral again. I guess it was a pretty ingenious marketing ploy for the company that year. But what the heck? What's with that caffeine free gold one on the end. ?
I know there are soooo many weird coke products in the last 10 years (once again to bad I didn't get them) but a gold coca cola can?? Well... I never!
Here are some other strange products that coca cola introduced to the world and still clutter my room.

Cherry coke! Old school style. Not much else to say about that. Awesome cherry for the "o".
and then of course the new coke. Now I must have been pretty young for that one. I'm not sure when it happened but I don't think I ever got to try it. That's probably for the best from what I understand.
Next up. Coca-Cola proud sponsor of the Olympics.
Now these ones were easy to date.

Just some old Olympic coke cans. Not much else to say about that.
Once again I'm kinda wishin' I had kept this thing going. The Christmas ones alone would be a huge collection over 18 years.

I think I'm gonna start collecting them again...
Here are some odd ball cans I have.

Going from left to right, you have a can from Mexico somebody gave me. This one is still full.
Some crazy Minnie Mouse one. Whatever thats about.
A mini can that my friend got from an airplane. Once again there is that spiral design. they should maybe bring that back... maybe not. And then the bluejays 2 world series back to back can. Cause I guess some baseball dudes. played some good games.
Now here are my weirdest ones.
Any coke can that isn't red is awesome (not including non coca cola classic drinks although i still think that gold one is crazy)

Green cans? blue cans? white? crazy! Just like that old green christmas one. I wish coke would do this more often. You never see them do that now. The face ones I think were always the best that I had.
I also collected some glass bottles. and any coca cola junk I could find. Maybe some other day I'll go through all the odd stuff I have too. But here are the few bottles I have left.

These came out recently I grabbed them and they were my first contirbution to the collection in about 10 years.
Here is a bottle from the 1996 summer Olympics
but more specifically , for the 1996 summer Olympics torch relay.

Sorry these last ones aren't to easy to make out being clear and all.
But the bottle on the left side I would say is from 1993 to 1996 somewhere.
And the bottle on the right I got at an old person yard sale. I would estimate that
it is old.

that is all.
