For an interesting history about this sign and how it was saved, click here:

The Tucson Historic Preservation Foundation is working with community partners and Pima Community College to restore and reinstall, a series of these historic neon signs along Tucson's Mid-Century Modern highway.
Reminds me of Vegas--they just refurbished the Tropicana recently, but they don't have such a nice sign in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteHi All Knowing, I bet that in its day Tucson's Miracle Mile rivaled the neon in Vegas. What fun it must have been to see all the signs lit up on that motel/hotel highway!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great looking sign!! Nice design and colors
