Your "lantern" is from about 1962, and was used as a point of purchase sign around the introduction of the king size bottled drink package to stores. As a good rule of thumb, the "fishtail" logo as collectors call it, (correct name is the "arciform" logo) was used from about 1959 to 1969. By 1969 and 1970 the company was transitioning into the current "dynamic ribbon" logo. Its value is around 200-300 dollars, primarily because it is a light up.
Thank You Very Much for the information you have been very helpfull!
