We will add more to our list in future galleries.
Have you seen any of these signs along your travels? There is no doubt that you can still find these vintage-style signs, particularly in the resort area of Upstate's mountains and lake regions, as well as in tourist meccas like Niagara Falls, New York.
How about a neon cowboy beckoning you into a 60+ year old diner with a hearty 'Howdy Folks!'. A retro colored sign for a lounge that highlights 'Go Go Girls.' What? Yes, and both of those signs are in the same Upstate New York city (see photo). A neon chef with a hatchet in his hand chasing a harried chicken? That one is awesome. Here is a first collection of awesome neon (and other) signs still blinking and dazzling after all these years. Most of these are long gone.īut there are some, and we will feature many of them in this and future galleries. Especially found in areas like the Catskills and Adirondacks, these signs welcomed weekenders to campsites, motels and diners with neon Indian heads, flashing stars and sunbursts, and even kitschy Jetson-style 'modern' spaceship designs.
