Website Updating: Signs Pt. 2

One notable recent loss in Edgewater, FL — the company was bought out and this sign was removed:

On a positive note (for a change), this sign in Dublin, GA…

… was missing the doggie for a few years, and then the sign was entirely restored or repainted recently. This is the best angle I could get at Google & couldn’t find anything better online:

This sign and the restaurant in Weiser, ID are gone now:

I’ve been following all the hard work and restorations of the Relight the Neon organization in Pocatello, ID but somehow I missed this one. This Independent Order of Odd Fellows sign:

was restored a couple of years ago:

Here comes a bunch of losses in Illinois. This sign in Anna, IL is gone:

This sign in South Beloit, IL –— gone:

This one in Villa Park, IL…. gone:

This one in Chicago, IL is gone:

Some mixed news from St. Charles, IL: This sign is still there but the top lettering has been changed — no neon, just paint — for Hawk Ford:

Unfortunately, this sign which was around back, is gone now:

A couple of losses in Indiana. This sign in Franklin, IN is gone now:

and this beauty in Michigan City, IN is also gone:

Moving on to Kansas. The Crown Rug signs in Kansas City, KS are gone:

This sign in Salina, KS…

… has been repainted. I think the neon is still there but it’s hard to tell. Too bad that the AAA logo is gone but I’m happy that the readerboard survives:

I’m pretty sure I wrote about this poor sign in Henderson, KY last year at this time. This beauty:

had been transformed into this hideous thing:

Well, it’s been changed up again:

These two signs in Owensboro, KY are gone now:

Let’s end this post on a positive note. This sign in Lake Charles, LA had abandoned for years. It was standing on a vacant lot when I shot it last in 2018 and really seemed doomed:

But! The sign was rescued and the “Burger” (which was already a patch panel anyway) was swapped for “Music” and the neon was restored for a new business downtown:
