This vintage sign for D.R. Woodard
Cleaner & Dyer is a neon sign from the early 20th Century. The
marquee is a streamline design ... plus how many signs advertise "dyers" these days?
Check out the streamline front of the Martin's Gymnasium Equipment Co.
in Emeryville, CA. Unfortunately, like most of the other roadside worthy
establishments in Emeryville, this business may also have been demolished.

The TV sign is
a throwback to the days when appliance and TV repair duties belonged
to the neighborhood repairman. 04-06
