Could be outside lense of clock on a sign or building marquee. Fleetwing had the same thing on the top of a neon sign that they first had.

here's some better pictures showing the above signs in use... not sure if thats what the lens goes to or not. the one station photo, you can see there is some type of running man logo on the glass in the neon area...

that sign was just sold last year... wonder if anyone on OG knows who bought it so that they can get a measurement.

Don't know who bought it but I was with the nervous back up bidder! Wish he would have got it, heard it went to IL??


Thanks, Phil

The lens in question with Ohio around the outside perimeter defiantly goes to the Linco neon sign. The Marathon Dealer version took the same size lens (32"), but used the "Best In The Long Run" graphics.
