    Recently picked up this large metal Pepsi sign. Measures about 28x20 inches. I can't tell if it's original or a reproduction/ fantasy piece. Anyone know one way or the other?

      I would say fantasy because I see no trademark.

      I vote with my partner fhrjr2 . Fantasy or reproduction .

      Good point on the trademark. I've posted a close up photo of the Pepsi bottlecap, as well as a photo of the lower left corner of the sign. Where the trademark (R in a circle) normally is, there's an asterisk instead. And in the lower left corner of the sign, there's a "legend" which has "Trade Mark Registered" in English, Spanish, and French. My thought is the sign (if real) was made for use in multiple markets.
