After working over 37 years at a Buick dealer body shop, this neon Buick sign makes me feel good.

This one is my favorite.

some of mine. love neons!

One of mine.

I have these two early Claude Federal Neon signs in the kitchen.
The "Pig Sandwich" is an old original from a Pig Stand drive-in. It is my favorite, both in looks and in historical significance. Pig Stands started in Dallas, Texas in 1921 and was credited for several firsts. They were credited as the first drive-in restaurant with carhop service. They also "invented" chicken fried steak, Texas toast, and onion rings.
The star Cafe sign I like because it says "Real Food". Makes you wonder what people were eating back then if this place had to put that on their sign!

I just did this "poor man's neon" upgrade to my Zephyr letters formerly on a station roof top. I put adhesive backed LED strip lights on the back edges of the letters. These strip lights are currently on sale at Costco.com.

It's the reason I do all of this stuff. He loves having people here and we've rebuilt his entire history from scratch. It took years, but if you're really bored, a documentary I had done on him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwiZKEJK4O8

Oilzum 'fantasy' neon.

One of my favorite neons in my auto paint memorabilia collection. Martin Senour Auto Paint.

Here is the other one, it is a salesman sample that fits into a wooden case.
Bought both at a garage sale in my town.

Glasurit neon from the German auto paint maker, along with a can of their Porsche Glassomax Autolack auto paint.

Lit !

This one quit working .

sadly this all I have left due to down sizing

LOL. There is a little junk in there for sure. That's my fancy display.

Here’s a giant one I have. It’s not hanging and needs neon, but still a cool sign. It’ll hopefully be going to Columbus or Dixie.

Here are few more of some I have



Sid

One I forgot

Here is the only one I've got.

This is my only one

I guess you can consider neon clocks to also be neon signs. Here's mine .

Nothing to special. But I sure like it

Hey Tim ,


All Neons look great !!


Thanks Sid

Couple more

The cars in the picture that aren't pre 61, are cars my father raced that I tracked down and had restored or bought completed. Those will stay in our family forever, but the museums focus is pre 61, anything with tailfins. All of the signs and memorabilia is pre 61.

Peg

I sold all of my neon signs. These two I really liked that you don't see often.

Only one

From downtown Albany NY

Will look like this when Repaired .

Who doesn’t like neon . One on the way needs a little TLC one letter broken in the “fountain line” . Going to the neon urgent care shortly to get her back in shape . Sorry about the blurry pictures but not my photos.

Another one of mine . . .
