Just wanted to share this Pepsi Cola Neon that I just picked up. Neon is 5 feet wide and is a one off made for Pepsi Cola that was used in a commercial. Has 2 breaks in the neon that I need to get repaired.

     That sign came in here last night on it's way to the neon shop next door.   Did Ray mention that it is BIG?  Five feet wide and 4 feet tall.
Has hardware to support it as a floor stand, and long cords to hook up 2 remote transformers.

         Can anyone recall the commercial this early script logo would have been used in....... Michael Jackson / Jimi Hendrix etc?

There may be a mfg date on one of the neon transformers, other than that,  it's a guess

There are no transformers, only pre wired for 2.

The guy who I bought it from said it was given to him by a friend how shoots TV commercials and this Pepsi Neon was used in a commercial several years ago. Once commercial was shot it was created and stored.

Looking at it you can tell it is a piece made by a neon shop for either Pepsi or the company shooting the commercial for Pepsi. It is a very impressive piece and and not a job done by a rookie, it is a quality professional piece.

Can't wait to see it lit.

Britney Spears did a couple 50 retro Pepsi commercials a few years ago... Maybe it was in one of those....
