Hello gents..

I have just won a light up Pepsi sign on ebay UK...I'm guessing it was made specifically for the UK Market.
The logo says "cool refreshing". Seller states its 50's vintage but I think much later. Anyone know what era
we are talking about?

Thanks

Dave

Hey Dave,   with that block letter type it is going to be 70's to early 80's  but it is one great looking sign.  I have never seen one like it...

I like it too.  I'd say 70's vintage, but I know little on this type of sign.  I included the pictures because once the auction archive times out, They ( the pictures) will be gone & people will have no Idea what the heck we were talking about.) But don't worry, I'm sure Dave will share..hint hint.. tounge

i'm leaning toward 60's. the block lettering was more rounded in the 70's
But yeah, I'd be proud to have  it on my wall. Nice score!
