My partner at work found this while deer hunting years back and now has a friend who wants to buy it so I'm looking for a value for him.
It's about 6 foot, solid but as you can see way weathered/faded and the red has been brush painted at least once.
I guessed about $100 max but I'm not a Pepsi guy but I did explain to him that Big signs don't always bring big $$$
Thanks
Mike

Sign looks solid just needing restoration.
It's an uncommon size and even in that shape I know a couple Pepsi guys that would pay more than $100 and have it restored to hang in their collections.
This is one of those signs that some collectors will scoff paying more than $40 for, but that's just ancient thinking. Though some Pepsi items take longer to sell, this falls into the category of scarce desirable in restorable condition.
Collecting anything keeps you young at heart!

I sold one that was Repainted and got around 700.00 and stated it was Repainted But did not touch the back so they could tell it was a original sign. Had more in paint and time then I got for it LOL
This one is mine Sold the other one hope this helps

Holy cow. I have one of these in my shed that is pretty nice with great color and some minimal denting original I scored @ garage sale. I had no idea they were worth that kind of $$. I might sell mine if the price is right as I am not displaying it.
