Title: Dublin DP photos
Post by: collecture on August 28, 2009, 11:53:04 am
Was rummaging around and came across these two photos and thought I would share. I am sure I took more pics, but these are all I found so far. I took these in the early-mid 90's when Bill Klauster took me into his office next to the soda shop. All of the walls were covered with DP stuff - most in mint or near mint condition. I'll post more as I come across them.

I would love to have that diamond shaped DP sign! Maybe the moon wagon also!

I believe that is Don Meredith (quarterback in the 60's) in the Dallas Cowboy uniform

Enjoy!

$3.75 for a leather football. I like the diamond and the matching one to the side.

Nice signs. Years ago (maybe 14 years) I helped a restaurant owner sell off his signs because he was changing the decor. I found out because I asked the waiter if they ever considered selling any of their signs, and he said "As a matter of fact..."  I kept a few of the signs for myself, but one that was sold was just like that large sign in the center of the 2nd picture that is a diamond shape. This is the only time I have seen another. I wish I had that one along with a Sunbeam Bread, Hood Tires, and Coke 6 pack die cut that were sold.

The Diamond DP sign is awesome!
In the first photo, Dublin1, 1st column-second row, I have this exact cardboard in an original DP wooden frame!

Thanks for sharing Tom!
