Saturday evening, some great people decided to break in and steal some of my smaller in crate neon signs. They took two coke neons, three neon clocks, and one jewelry store clock. All restored. There is a $1000 reward for the return, arrest and conviction of the people responsible. Here are some of the pictures. There were two of the coke signs, all were still in the crate. Neon broken on one coke as the neon was all over the floor. All this stuff was stacked like cord wood and they had to move many pallets just to get up to where they were stacked.

So sorry to hear this ! Becoming so prevalent nowadays. Will keep my eyes open up this way! Post this up on Facebook and make it shareable as Facebook sadly gets a whole lot of looks by individuals . More eyes the better . Good luck catching the rascals and getting your stuff back .

Sad state of affairs that some lowlife scum resort to stealing a man’s hard earned possessions - hope they get found and fully prosecuted - sorry to hear of your loss…

Sorry to hear Craig. Those are really unique items, if they try to sell them, they should get caught.

I honestly would not post it on FB. Some of these crooks think we’re all old men and not on computers. If you post it on FB, they are just going to see that you are looking for them. Let him post the stuff for sale and you can figure out who it is. There’s a lot of dual eyes on both sites.
I also sent you a PM
-Steve
-Steve B. (WTB: 48" Flying A button, 48" black/org Phillips 66, White Star, and Chevrolet Signs. Also looking for a Wayne 866. Send a PM. Thanks.)
