Not sure if I posted this one or not, it's a bit old, but might still be available if someone is interested.  I think it's a bit highly priced in my opinion though.

It's a really nice sign though!

I usually pay too much for my signs because I like what I like and when a sign comes around, I grab it. That being said, I wouldn't give more than $200- $225 for this one.

That sign has it all going for it, IMHO not a bad buy if you collect DP and are looking for nice signs.

would love to have it 500 too much for my blood. And I agree with Joey if you collect it and want it your gonna pay and I imagine they are few and far between in that condition.

I would imagine if someone made a reasonable offer, he's ship it too.

I believe it's a  fantasy piece that came out in the  90's. I have the same one.
Definitely not the 50/s or 50's as the seller states, the bouncing letters  didn't start appearing until the 1960's

Here's a really cool listing of the various Dr Pepper logos if anyone ever wanted to take a look at all of them.
