He experienced some success for many years, but after WWI and rising sugar prices, Pespi-Cola company declared bankruptcy (1923). Caleb Bradham returned to his pharmacy ... and faded into obscurity. If he only knew what a giant his little company has become. A photo of the wall of an old carriage house, with some eclectic decor in an out of the way spot. For a vintage sign, that Pepsi arrow is looking pretty good, much better than the lighthouse is faring. This photo is dedicated to Doug (unstrung65), who likes this sort of image. ------
