    Description

    I own an advertising specialty company - now in our 42nd year I am happy to report - and worked in the industry for many years prior to establishing my own firm.
    Over the years I collected many over-run samples, one-or-a-kind spec samples and the like.
    We are now in semi-retirement and offering some of those on eBay.
    Recently while searching through boxes of old samples I happened upon these three items related to Atlanta, Georgia.   Due to the boxes and where i found them, I believe these to be from the 1990's.   However, while somewhat old, all are in pristine as new condition - as evidenced by my photos.
    And here is what I found:
    *   There was a very famous artist named Roger Coast.   Unfortunately Mr. coast passed away last year at a respectably old age.   In the 1990's the city of Atlanta commissioned Mr. Coast to create a stylized art version of Atlanta.   In it he was to portray local landmarks.   Among these were the old Atlanta Fulton County stadium, along with several notable hotels and office buildings - many of which are now gone.   Thank you progress...
    One of our suppliers took this creative piece of art and created a lasting memento.   This supplier manufactures items in synthetic marble.   The material was very much like genuine marble, but allowed a better surface for etching.   Although synthetic, it was very real looking, and in some respects superior to the genuine thing.
    The "marble" was then custom etched and color filled, usually in black, although they did other colors as well.   That was then mounted on a pressed wood, suitable for hanging.  The beautiful plaque is 8" x 6" and impressive.
    Very striking in appearance, and still in it's original gift box.   Never hung nor even shown to customers.
    *   The next Atlanta gift is a beautiful etched ceramic coffee mug.   It is in a brown color with the design actually etched into the surface of the ceramic mug - not merely screened.   The technique gives the mug a 3-D appearance.   It really stands out!  The design is also a stylized artist rendition of Atlanta.   Again, many local landmarks are depicted, including the State Capitol.  This nice mug was made in Korea, and decorated in the U.S.A.
    *   The beautiful old fashioned glass too is etched for a more distinctive look.   It carries the same design as the mug, and in fact was made by the same custom decorator.   The glass and decoration are made in the  U.S.A.
    As mentioned, although old, all three pieces have never been used and are in as new condition.
