1961 Animals of Africa in South Africa

 

 
In 1961, Coca-Cola introduced the “Animals of Africa” promotion to the South African market. Each miniature ivory animal figure has “Drink Coca-Cola” on the base. The promotional posters read, “Every time you refresh with ice cold Coca-Cola, you help a wild animal survive”, and proceeds were donated to the Water for Wild Animals Fund. Animals of Africa 3-D settingThe Company at the time was looking for “a large-scale promotion which would not only offer to the public interesting and attractive premiums for the purchases of Coca-Cola, but would be of direct assistance in a cause of national importance, namely, the protection of the wildlife of Africa.” There were a total of 20 animals in the complete set, although one collector has a set featuring a 21st animal.
THIS SET HAS 23 ANIMALS (some have fanta stamped)
 
Animals of Africa jewelryThe 3-D setting could be purchased separately, and some people even adorned the animals as jewelry as you can see in the picture of the lady wearing a necklace, bracelet and earrings made of the animals. This continues to be a very popular item among Coca-Cola Collectors, even in the United States even though the promotion did not run in the US.
