Coca Cola’s advertising tagline—“Have a Coke and a smile”—is probably one of the most famous in corporate history, though it hadn’t been thought of yet back when U.S. actress Ann Sothern posed with a Coke for this promo image made for her 1947 movie The Judge Steps Out. Back then the company’s slogan was, “Coke knows no season.” Sothern knows no season either. She accumulated a hefty number of credits on radio, television, stage, and screen—more than one hundred, if we count correctly—including in The Blue Gardenia, Shadow on the Wall, and Super-Sleuth. We’ve shared a couple of promo images of her before, one of which was amusingly similar to today’s. Have a look here. Sothern will be back.
