This is a sign that was completely restored! With new wiring, Transformers, P.K. housings, & re-tubed with Technolux super blue neon.
The 30" wide X 28' tall double faced sign was originally built in the 1940's & consisted of a steel angle iron frame, sheet metal returns, and baked porcelain enamel faces. At the grand re-lighting event the historic sign was featured on many local TV & News editions, and marked the begining of a restoration of the Washington Avenue garment district.
