What can you tell me about this?

Better to look into the seller of the original Queen Anne for 3 reasons.  First, that will be more valuable than a reproduction. Second, you may spend more than $1500.00 buying a machine and trying to copy the original. That sign will be a challenge $$$
       White is not a Dr. Pepper color anyway!
       Third, the seller of the original Queen Anne may have had it for too long and decides that if you really like it, he will make you a deal you can't refuse

Glen is spot on. I'll add haven't seen a QA for sale in quite awhile. Anybody know production numbers? Must not have been many.

Well everyone has as a opinion on what they like and what they don't , Myself I do like those machines.
As to changing a vendo 63 over, It can be done
 and as far as the marquee that can be done.
 the one I did for my Vernors was a little over $100
 and yes it was worth it, And yes I may do it again.
Now this would not be a original Queen Ann
and not worth as much as the original,
But who care's, You did it for for your
 mom . OH Yeah for those ornamental piece's
 check out VanDyke's they have a web site also
 www.vandykes.com   and some cool stuff.
