Do you think this top sign is original? or an add on after the fact? Just curious I've never seen anything like it. Sign seems era correct.

The sign was done by Pepsi, I had a machine similar many years ago.

Not a Pepsi guy, but that is a pretty sweet looking machine.

Definetly one of the better looking pepsi machines. You buy it or looking to buy it?

I saw that machine also on CL. Forgot where or price. Just a converted Coke machine, if it was a embossed Pepsi there would be no need to put the sign over it. Does look cool though.

He wants 1700.00. He says its in perfect original condition. I like the unique machines so this caught my eye. I may be interested at a better price. Moondawg said he's had one before so It makes me think it could possibly be a original pepsi with a special eye catching top. Maybe they added the sign because the embosed top was not catching people attention. This top does for sure. Mygoose101 That also makes sense that it is covering a embosed Coca Cola under there but it doesn't look repainted. You may think different after seeing these pics or you might see something I missed.

Coke never embossed 33's and this one has never been red. Remove the sign and it's just another 33.
When you first posted the pic. I thought it had been repainted and had too many decals applied.
Now I would place a higher value on the originality than the sign.
He will probably sell it to you for your price, since if most people are going to spend $1000.00 or more on an antique soda machine, they want to use it. This one only vends small Coke bottles.
Very nice original!

Thanks Glen. I didn't even realize they were never embossed. So if that is the case there would be no need to cover up a coca cola decal so this is an original sign. Knowing the machine and sign are original does make it very appealing to me. The sign must have been put on to attract extra attention. I think I may give him a call. Thanks for helping me figure that out.
