Neon Sign Sketches: Store & Brand Names (Collection of 20 Pieces)
Neon Sign Sketches: Store & Brand Names (Collection of 20 Pieces)
DESCRIPTION
Turns out our 100-year-old building - now a music store - used to house a neon sign factory! Recently, we discovered several discretely stored boxes of hand-drawn sketches used to create and construct neon signs for businesses in and around the Topeka, Kansas area during the 1980s and 90s. Drawn on a variety of paper types and sizes (approximate dimensions are noted on each photo), this particular collection of 20 sketches highlights local store names as well as some nationally recognizable brand names, including Gibson guitars and Russell Stover candies. Note that some of the designs read forward and others read backward, depending on how the finished product was meant to be viewed.
Please keep in mind that these sketches were not stored with a great deal of care, and as a result, they are quite fragile with widely varying conditions. Most of them have  some type of noticeable damage, including tears, burn marks, taped repairs, creases, folds, and holes. That said, with a little TLC and possibly some professional framing, these would look super funky fantastic in a loft apartment, a retro bar or restaurant, a downtown office space, or even a historic exhibit!
Feel free to contact us with any questions or to request additional photos. And remember, this collection of neon sign sketches ships FREE within the continental United States. Buyers outside the continental U.S. should message us for a shipping quote prior to purchase.

and taxes are not included in purchase pricing or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibilities. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.

If you are not satisfied with your purchase, returns are possible within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt. Contact us to receive a Return Authorization form. Fill it out and pack it with your item, shipping your item to us at your expense, in the same or better condition as you received it. After we receive and inspect your returned item, we will replace it or issue you a refund, less shipping charges.
