Description

Fantastic SSP die cut factory neon sign with a new metal can has outstanding color and gloss. The sign features brilliant seven-color neon with heavily shelved, unique porcelain enamel colors. The field is clean with light wear to the white porcelain enamel. The outer fields and perimeter have areas of minor crazing and discoloration with small color matched chips which are primarily along the edges of the sign. The metal can is in excellent condition. Overall an exceptional figural neon sign from the 1950s with strong eye appeal.
