Wow, look at this amazing little rare Coca Cola collectors item I dug out of someones cupboard today - Was just about to give it to my kids to play with :facepalm:
That is a really cool piece! Animals of Africa was a promotion launched in 1961 in several African countries. The full set consisted of 20 plastic animals with a three-dimensional display unit. Your set is particularly interesting because you have 21 animals in your collection. (I counted the animals a few times to make sure you had the 21st!) The additional animal, a springbok (that?s the animal at the back of the display with the arrow I drew pointing at him), was distributed separately because of the success of the original promotion.
