From Askart.com: Hamilton King (1871-1952) was a prominent illustrator who worked in the late 1800s and early 1900s. King illustrated the Coca-Cola girls for calendars from 1910 to 1913. The Coca-Cola calendar work was considered significant because the artist's signature appeared in all printed matter for Coca-Cola, including serving trays. King became well known for his Hamilton King Girls, significantly working on behalf of Turkish Trophies Cigarettes. A majority of this collection is held by The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Additional collections of the artist are held by the Smithsonian Institution.
