I got this sign last night from a friend that was out picking. We meet for supper and he was showing me the things he got. One of the items was this Dr. Pepper tin sign. I know the sign is rough but it still looks good hanging in the man cave. The sign shows Robertson-Dualife 8. 1936. in the lower right corner.
