Was that Coca-Cola Halo sign actually attached to the top of the Popcorn Sez vendor?

I don't think it's a halo sign, rather a repopped gas globe.
Wonder howe difficult it would be, beciause of the convex shabe of the lens to make a Popcorn sez globe starting with a blank lens .

It wouldnt be hard at all to make a popcorn globe. You can buy blank lenses and there is a few people out there that make custom one offs for people.

Pat,

Thanks for sharing--sorry I couldn't make it.  happydrinkers That True Pepsi 2 Door just sold on E-bay.  It was out of a country club in mid-Michigan.  That machine looked very clean in the pictures.  If I was more of a Pepsi guy that would be in my collection now.

Looks like there was some nice stuff to check out.  Did you or Johnie have any luck with the machines that you took out there or did you decide not to do that?

Pat,

That is a sweet Pepsi sign! Nice buy. I love that it is embossed! Looked like a decent show. Too bad I was not in Michigan at the time! Coming in July. If there are any shows going on, keep me posted!
