Part of the Neon Collection at the American Sign Museum in Cincinnati, OH.
The sign museum has a full original sign AND a one-of-a-kind 8 foot model sign created for trade shows. This view shows the full sized one.
Tod Swormstedt (museum founder and curator) showed us the mechanism that makes the chasing lights. It was just a rotating contact on a motor. Nothing fancy. Cutting edge for 1950. With that high voltage, it sure arced up a storm though. Coool.
