Pepsi Bottle Cap Sign

Hello, I bought this at an antique shop earlier today. I believe it's original but it doesn't say a sign company name. I believe it is from 1965. Any information about value, sign company, etc would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Looks  original to me.  5-65 is your date.

It's looks to be a very clean original.

Thanks for the replies, I wasn't completely sure that it was original when I bought it, so I'm glad to have other opinions on it.

A repro was made  in the 90's  it wouldn't have the mfg markings yours has, and the repro is 27",  I believe the authentic ones are a little larger???

You have the real deal - Stout Sign may have made yours... they are one of the BIG Sign companies that made the originals and also make the reproductions now... the “real” (old) signs had that green “wash” on the backing.... to where today it's solid if painted at all... most metal stock for signs today have a white coating... also many signs produced now are of aluminum (cheaper and won't rust)... another tell tale is on the
newer Pepsi sign caps the colors red and blue go all the way to the edge to where yours has the ridge of white all the way around... Yours is
marked and dated... Very nice sign... Congrats
