I would also ask that I be given a "first look" at any 7Up UnCola billboards or posters before you market them to the general public in return for my extensive investment in time, money and research, including interviewing some of the surviving artists. Thanks, and enjoy. - - -

1970 21'x10' 7Up UnCola "Buy A Merry Can" vintage billboard poster by Jacqui Morgan #7Upvintage #BuyAMerryCan #BuyAmerican "Canvenience For All"

 

This is Design 70-7 per the rainlap diagram on the rear of top left Panel A1 (= 7th 7Up UnCola billboard issued in 1970).

 

21'x10' vintage billboard acquired in MINT, New Old Stock (NOS) condition. It consists of 12 panels at 43" wide x 59" tall. I was able to reinforce all 12 panels with with minimal clear, acid-free scrapbooking tape on the back (only).

 

This is TWO-OF-A-KIND as I only know of one other billboard, but no smaller posters in any other size at this time.

I spoke with her on the phone in about 2012 about this image, but she didn't have any copies of the artwork in her own possession.

 

Jacqui Morgan and this image are featured on pages #7 & 8 in a small American Contemporary Graphics booklet from about 1971-72:
