RickR Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Posted July 20, 2015 I think they are early 70's Pepsi collector glasses.
nosweargamer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 I dig these retro promo glasses. I miss being able to get them at McDonalds and such.

Jimbronie Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 In the mid-late 70s those were sold in my area at Hardee's. They were all Warner brothers characters.

greenween Posted July 30, 2015 Report Posted July 30, 2015 Sorry it took a while. If the price is right I always snatch them up! The first pic appears to be a 73 Brockway black letter Porky. The other 2 are from the later 77 run. I have a complete white letter Brockway collection! Slow Poke was the money one In mint condition they range from about 12-$60 depending on rarity.

greenween Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 I wish I still had my Star Wars glasses! I think you can get a full set for around $50 on ebay. Off to ebay I go! "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."
greenween Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 Much like JimBronie , I got a lot of cool glasses from Hardees! I grew up in NC. "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."
Jimbronie Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 Much like JimBronie , I got a lot of cool glasses from Hardees! I grew up in NC. Yup. We had a load of those. The Star Wars ones ( I think that was Burger King) and McDonald's character glasses. Sadly all are gone. I live in the northeast/midatantic area. I think the Hardee's went out of our area late 70s early 80s.
