Info request: Cookie Jar and Map

I just inherited several old items (maybe junk), but am very new to antiques. One item is a McCoy cookie jar that looks like Aunt Jemima with crazing and some of the black and red paint is rubbed off. I think I can find the McCoy jar information as to how old, worth, etc. at the library, but I also have another old cookie jar that has no markings on the bottom

Re Coca Cola....three (at least) good books available...one by Petretti, one by Wilson and one by Summers...I think Petretti is the standard reference...available in 'dozens' of places on the web and quite likely most city libraries would have access ...I don't have any within arms reach at the moment...good luck

REgarding the cookie jar

(cookie jar question snipped as already answered)

<I also have an old map with the dates 1842-1942 <and illustrations at the top along with 'compliments of <oca Cola' which is in very good condition. Where <should I look for information regarding Coca Cola <advertising items? I would appreciate any information <or guidance and I thank anyone in advance for any <help provided. Thanks

Your map, with the dates 1842-1942, would appear to be an item commemorating the 100th anniversary of a regional event (obviously, it's not a Coca-Cola anniversary item as the company isn't that old.)

My Petretti 'Coca-Cola' book does not mention this particular item (I have an older edition.)

My guess, however, is that you have an item that would be considered a cross-collectible (ie, attractive to both Coca-Cola and collectors of whatever memorabilia this map represents.)

Rather than your local library (which seldom has complete and current info on items such as this), I always send people to 'your largest local bookstore such as Borders and Barnes & Noble'
