I have a paper billboard of the vintage blimp as well as various sized same-era posters and an advertising style booklet showing many of the 7 up posters. I can't seem to locate any info on current prices on these. Any ideas?
I love that first one... I love how advertising looked so friendly back in the 1960s and 1970s... compared to today’s advertising which is not only annoying... but so boring.... that first one really does inspire happiness!
