A beautiful jewelry shop sign sits outside the Mahaiwe Jewelers. Note the intricate tube work in the diamond on top. A true art form that is becoming more rare as the decades go by.
Here's Webb's Clothing, a nice formal clothier still in business since the days of top hats and coattails.
The neon still works at Phil's Gift Shop in Binghamton, New York. A true flashback to a time when the main shopping district was Main Street America.
Nearby Johnson City is Binghamton, New York. A town/city that appears to be "frozen in time", Binghamton still proudly displays it's early and mid-century signage. Warwicks Gowns is just one example of what this town carries.
Another well preserved sign is that of Elgins Rugs of Binghamton, NY. Stop by here if you'd like to cover your floor... This marquee has an Islamic design influence. Ellis Bros. Check out Ellis Bros. Inc and the Phil's Gift Shop sign in the background. Two classic signs that appear to still be neon.
Walter's Shoe Store of Binghamton. A New York neighborhood shoe store. Looks like this shoe store has been business for quite some time by the looks of the old neon sign atop the roof.
Ever get that feeling while driving down the highway where you feel like getting something sweet to eat. Well, you're in luck. In business since the 1930's, Gene and Boots Candy near Monroeville, Pennsylvania is there off the roadside to give you a sweet to munch on. And while stopping (or even driving by), check out the famous Gene & Boots Candy sign with the classic barber shop peppermint stems. Just don't count on the Precious Moment sale. Further up from New York is Hamilton, Ontario with mid-century signage that could challenge any city for style. the Harmony Furniture store is a good place to stop and visit for furniture, if not to just marvel at is marquee.
When one thinks of parking lots, a vintage roadside sign does not normally come to mind. Check out this one in Syracuse... looks like the sign flashes in tiny bulbs like an old neighborhood carnival sign.
