This must have been a promotional photo?...New building, shinny new trucks and no doubt this was a corporate operation not a franchise. Prior to this date I have no idea who distributed Coca-Cola in Vancouver but do remembering reading something pertaining to a trip to Vancouver BC by Asa Candlers nephew...Sam Candler (in charge of west coast operations) to check on the success of the drink..maybe around 1906?. it was selling for 10 cents a glass or bottle?....I can't be certain as it was long ago that I read the book For God, Country & Coca-Cola []But the biggest thing for me now to try and understand is the fact that the Advertising Dept. truck has a SS bottle with a paper label depicted on the side!!!....where dose that leave my hobble skirts dated 1918-1920???
