Two different Coca-Cola ads from two different magazines (Life and Ebony) in the same month (August 1967). Notice any similarities? The white man’s hand has been altered to make it look like a black man’s hand for the Ebony version of the Coke ad.
The strange thing about this (well, one of them) is that Coke was clearly fine with using African-Americans for their other ads. Just not this one.
