PNW Sign | Cleaners | Drug Store | Ghost | Neon | Other | Shopping Center | PNW Main
The Hertz in Portland, OR has one of the old types of signage with a clock on it. Not sure if this old sign still keeps the time.
There's no doubt about the first letter of the Zeller Chapel of the Roses sign in Portland. This prominent "Z" can be seen for a ways down the block.
This sign for the ABM features a rather tall marquee with a roadside character facing the street.
The neon lit sign for the Food Mart is an old roadside sign that attempts to catch customer's eye with its giant "Save!" lettering atop the marquee.
To the right is a three frame shot of the "animated" Indian (Native American) head on the Office Depot in Wenatchee, WA. It's a double-sided sign. The eyes move back and forth several times, slow down, stop, and then it winks. The eyes appear to be attached to some sort of pendulum mechanism.
The rooftop sign for the Willoughby Hearing Aids sits in this shopping center in Portland, OR.
Many may view Office Depot as just another of the big box stores that are entering a strip mall near you. Well, this one in Wenatchee, WA features a sign on its rooftop that's worth a triple-take.
Here's a vintage business and sign found in Oregon for Tonys Town & Country Clothing.
The loaf is at Northeast 12th Avenue and Flanders Street in Portland. It revolves once every 4 ½ minutes. It has been rotating for nearly 5 decades. The motor is about the size of a washing machine motor. The whole loaf weighs about 5,000 and is formed from white acrylic and is supported inside from interior angle irons. Three hundred pounds of ballast keep it balanced. It has been damaged by storms and repaired and updated a couple of times such as having the tie added to the front, but it keeps on turning 24/7 at the Franz Bakery. A landmark in Portland, OR built by Security Signs.
