An outstanding guide to all forms of soda pop collectibles - every type imaginable. Covers signs, smalls, paper items, bottles, thermometers, fans, tin, clocks, radios, trays and coasters, mini-bottles, toys, mirrors, lighters, labels, music, and on and on. Superior black and white and full color photography. The collector won't be able to put this book down. Add it to your library. You'll refer to it often.

A SUPER BOOK FOR THE NON-COCA COLA INDIVIDUAL. AS AN ADVID MOXIE DRINKER AND COLLECTOR I'M ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR MOXIE ITEMS. THERE WERE MANY ITEMS IN PETRETTIS BOOK THAT I HAD NO IDEA EVEN EXISTED. IT REALLY ADDED TO MY EDUCATION OF VALUE, SCARCITY AND CONDITION REQUIREMENTS. MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF SODA ARE WELL DOCUMENTED--PEPSI,HIRES,DR. PEPPER,KIST,ETC. ETC.

4.0 out of 5 stars Must have for soda-pop collectors, September 15, 1998

This review is from: Petretti's Soda-Pop Collectibles Price Guide: The Encyclopedia of Soda-Pop Collectibles (Paperback)

Attempts to tackle the monumentous task of cataloging and pricing collectibles for all major (and many minor) non-Coke sodas. An invaluable reference to help identify and date soda pop collectibles. I suspect the next edition will be about three times as big. More color plates and an expanded section on identifying repros and fakes would be a big plus.
