Hmmm...

 

This sign is right across the street from the post office--a place I of course went to many, many times with Etsy parcels--and every single time I see it I think, "Boobs?" I mean...that logo does not even resemble fish, does it? I don't think the right side ever had an "eye," but maybe it did and someone said, "Look, dudes, those are BOOBS!" Ha!

Abbreviated

This sign is...interesting. I'm not sure who it's intended for as it is only about four feet high....

Frank's

 

Not a flashy sign, but I still like it!

I think it's the two stars on the "foreign car" panel that make it for me...this must be from the sixties or seventies.

Tipsy

 

I think the "LIQUOR" sign has been drinking...

Happy Donut Day

 

Alas, we didn't find out about Donut Day until too late, but please enjoy these visits to donut shops past.

Perfect

 

This sign in Lincoln, Nebraska, is a marvel: its position on the building, the fact that it is a No. 2 pencil, and the red neon outline--which still lights up--all combine to make it just fab.

Nebraska: See How

 

We are in Nebraska to see the sandhill cranes. I'm still sorting photos (and I'm still here, so more photos may be taken!)...turns out, moving birds (in low light due to overcast March skies) are very hard to photograph--who woulda thought?

In the meantime, please enjoy this tatty billboard.

Classic

 

Love this vintage Chinese restaurant sign: the colors and lettering are classic.

'N Stuff

 

I love everything about this: the name of the shop, the sign, the shop building, the color of the building, the signage in/on the windows...it's all fab!

Long-Time Abandoned Sign

This sign for Nickerson Farms, near Picacho Peak, has been here, in this same condition, ever since I moved to Arizona in 1982; it's on the road between Phoenix and Tucson. Apparently the restaurant closed sometime around 1980 and the building has since moldered to the ground but the sign lives on...

Throwback

 

Fond memories of the Hotel Congress from back in the day (1980s)...always fun to see this sign.
