Bigger Bottle! Better Flavor! says this big painting-on-a-wall. This sure looks like an advertisement from a few decades ago. And the brick background seems to add to the vintage feel, does it not? I found this Old Pepsi Cola advertisement on a wall on Las Vegas Strip in Nevada.
By the way, did you notice how the bottle and the cup and hands that hold them stand out from the textured background. I thought that that added so much more effect to the advert. And wish I had pictures of what it looked like at night. (You might want to look that up.)
While I fret over not having a night shot, you take a look at another picture of the advert and the wall it was painted on:
— A post for this week’s Monday Mural hosted by Sami’s Colourful World. Next week you find more art from Las Vegas linked to the meme. Do come back and take a look at them. π
Also, if you are interested murals and would like to see more of them, here are the posts from the archives — murals featured on Tipsy from the TRIP.
Love the 3D effect of the bottle and Coca Cola sign. Even the brick wall looks better with the mural on it.
Thanks for contributing.
Yeah, the 3D seems like a great addition to this piece.
Thank you for hosting, Sami. π
IΒ΄ve never seen a mural like that before – great work.
Me too.
I love how those hands and the soda bottle stand out.
Thank you for coming this way, Iris. π
…I’d love a Pepsi right about now, it would neat the see the sign lit. Mighty neat!!!
haha!
When I was putting up the post, I wished I had a picture of the wall at night. I looked up the pictures online and they look very interesting.
The next time I go that side, I’m definitely bringing back a picture or two of what it looks like at night.
Mine is from Vegas as well today.
Cool. Coming by your blog soon, Jackie. π
That is a fine mural. I know of a Pepsi mural featuring the same two characters in our state, but I think the words are different. It has been there for many decades.
It is. π
Oh yeah? You should put up for Monday Mural. We’d love to see it.
Thank you. π
Old is Gold π I have never seen these OLD Pepsi ads earlier… so interesting to see these simple yet effective ads in form of art on the walls π
I also like the extra dimensions that they’ve added to the painting on the wall. And better still — that can be lit. I wish had night shots of the advert.
I hope you’ve been well, Prasad. π
Very cool!

[…] This is not the only painted staircase I found there on Pier 39. There was a piano staircase, too. More about that, soon. If you’ve seen another set of painted stairs on Pier 39, do let me know and I’d love to go check it out the next time I’m there. If you’ve seen any other of San Francisco’s artistic stairs, I’d love to hear about them, too. If you’d like to see a bit more of this busy part of San Francisco, visit Pier 39 at night — with all its lights on!MoreSee San Francisco See San Francisco Murals Also, See this Pepsi Cola Vintage Mural in Las Vegas […]
