No Period On Dr Pepper Can?!
Answers: Why is there no period (.) after the Dr?
The reason there is no period is the result of an italicized type face used in the early 1950s. The period after the "r" appeared to look like a colon because of the font used. The result appeared to be "Di: Pepper". Not only was the period dropped, but the font was soon changed.
probably because dr pepper is a fictional name
