My late father in-law was an avid collector of Coca Cola merchandise, which is a pretty common thing to collect. He had Coke cans, a cooler, chandelier, dinner table, signs, etc. But I can’t say that I have heard of anyone who is as big of Pepsi stuff, until today.
Christian Cavaletti is an Italian man who has broken the Guinness Book of World Records of how many Pepsi cans that someone can collect. Christian has 12,402 can of Pepsi from all over the world. This feat beat the previous record of of over 4,000, which was held by…himself. That was the first time he entered the record books.
The cans date back to 1948, when the first can was produced and distributed to the public.
But wait, there’s more.
Christian isn’t just a collector of Pepsi cans, he is also a collector of Coca Cola cans. While he doesn’t hold the record for this feat, that belongs to Canadian Gary Feng.
Back to Christian’s collection, it isn’t just for him to admire, it will now be open for all when he plans on opening a museum of his Pepsi cans for all to see. If you want a sneak peek, check out his website: Pepsi Cans-Virtual Museum
