What a shame it’s no longer up. Have you heard any updates about whether the sign was saved? It looks like it was amazing.

Have you ever been to So Tucson? There is a beautiful neon sign for the Arizona Inn (I think that’s the name of it) on South 6th Street south of 22nd. St. It’s such a beauty that when I’m in town and it’s dark enough to have the sign lit up, I drive waaay out of my way to see it! If you haven’t seen it yet, you’ve got to–it’s a real beauty!
Like you, I’m hooked on neon!

I love your site, which I found it when you commented on mine. I’ve seen various protective shields in other places too; there’s a great bowling alley sign in Wichita that’s protected by ugly hardware cloth. I’m told that some insurers demand this sort of thing.

I can’t find a contact address for you, but here’s more info on a few of Hutchinson’s neon signs: http://www.thelope.com/2007/11/parade-of-neon.html We have more, but they were not on the parade route and will be in another story.

If you come my way, do send me an email.

Comment on Alta View Motel Cafe – Sandy, UT – gone by Ryan Christensen

This is interesting, because I saw the Alta View Motel come up on an iPhone App as the closest motel to my location. I thought it was just a GoogleMaps error, but now thanks to your post I find out that it really use to be there on State St.

Do you have any other vintage photos of Sandy?

Do you mind if I use your picture in our neighborhood newsletter? We have a lot of old timers who may remember this.

Comment on Lockheed Shopping Center, Midwest City, OK by CGHill

Rather a lot of the streets in the Original Square Mile of Midwest City (15th to 29th, Air Depot to Midwest Blvd.) are named for either aircraft manufacturers or flying aces (Lockheed, Boeing, Rickenbacker, Douglas, Northrup). Know Thy Market, indeed.
