Way overpriced ! I had bought a similiar shaped Royal Crown Cola lamp for less than $40 several years ago on eBay.

I agree - too much!
It is kinda cool though - can be a table lamp or wall mount - am I right?

Here's a pic of my Royal Crown Cola lamp in the same style as the Dr. Pepper. This style of advertising by Royal Crown Cola was used in the 1970's and even has the same swivel feature to repostition the lamp shade sideways. So, I would say the Dr. Pepper lamp was made in the 70's too. $150 definitely is way overpriced.  :Oo:

BTW, it's only a table lamp and does not mount on the wall.

Doesn't look like it would be hard to retro-fit into a wall mount.
