Coyote, Yosemite Sam were released in a 1973 Pepsi Set that contained 18 glasses. This set was produced with "Black Letters" and later changed to "White Letters" so you could read the name when the glass contained Pepsi. This set was produced by Brockway Glass Company and the Federal Glass Company in order to get the most glasses in the hands of it's customers. With that said there are four different sets of 16 ounce glasses. All 18 were produced in the Brockway 16 ounce "Black Letter" version. Later in 1976 Warner Bros and Pepsi release two series of twelve glasses. Rather than the static pose these glasses had action poses. The first series was distributed normaly but the second series had to have orders of 1,800 cases. Most of these glasses went to Taco Bell in California. They are harder to find as less were made but also because of distribution. Harvey Cartoons' Pepsi Glasses incude Casper, Wendy, Big Baby Huey, Hot Stuff, Richie Rich, and the hardest to find Sad Sack. Pepsi also produced Super Hero sets that included Aquaman, Batman, Batgirl, The Flash, Shazam!, Superman, Supergirl Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Penguin, Riddler, Joker and Robin.
