Title: Has anyone ever seen one of these? Post by: bcharlton on July 02, 2012, 08:28:35 am I was in Ohio over the weekend and spotted this sign that the owner would not sell. It looks like a 7up crossing guard. Does anyone know anything about these?

I cannot remember which, where or when the auction takes place, but I'll do a little digging today time permitting... Very cool cross walk sign, never saw or even knew 7-Up manufactured these! That would be too much to know that two of these just popped up on the grid! Title: Re: Has anyone ever seen one of these?

It is cool. i wish you luck finding one Title: Re: Has anyone ever seen one of these? Post by: globalcompressors on July 02, 2012, 02:00:08 pm that's pretty cool.

Title: Re: Has anyone ever seen one of these? Post by: Seven181 on July 05, 2012, 04:49:30 pm I had one of these back about 8 years ago. I bought it when I had the huge 7up collection. I think I paid $800 or so. I ended up selling for like close to $1500 to a huge collector in Cali. It was a neat sign. Sometimes you never see stuff again, so think before you sell things! It is a rare one.
