It all started in 1974 with a purchase of a DAD'S root beer sign. Now I have an extensive collection which I would like to share with other people interested in root beer.
.....Reverse paint on glass, 6"X14.5". From a 1940's COCA COLA display.

The web site title "Dr Root Beer" was chosen based on my experience and knowledge of root beer advertising and collecting. This information I would like to share with other interested collectors, answering questions that you send to me, and using this site as an educational forum. Additionally, some early root beer was advertised for its medicinal purposes.

I also hope to make contacts with other collectors, dealers/sellers and add to my collection by buying or trading. Along with the root beer, I will be sharing my collections of pie tins, marshmallow tins and airline pinback/buttons.
