When I go on vacation in las Vegas I want to see the sign graveyard, where is it?
by dewingedfairy | Posted in Las Vegas
I have heard that in las vegas there is a 'sign burial-ground' where all the old school vegas neon signs are. Does anyone know where it is and can I visit it?
Never knew this existed. I'll keep one's eyes open for for other people to answer ..... looks like its well-grounded outside of downtown Las Vegas.
I found a couple of neat websites though: http://www.roadsidepeek.

New Jersey State of Mind: Neon's eternal glow
There is something about its over comforting glow that draws you in, makes you pull over.
"Chinese comestibles" and "Delicious Pizza" and "Free Alterations" and "Motel" and "Joe's Bar." All of those neon signs and others -- big and ashamed, stark and splendid -- have burned silently and magnificently, and almost eternally, in the superior American night.
Many might regard neon as a thing of the past, doomed to obsolescence in an age of computer graphics and cheaper, easier-to-uphold LED displays.
But any trip along the American roadside, down roads such as Routes 1 and 22 and 17, shows you neon is humming and well, even if the craft is being practiced by a slowly dwindling group of sign-makers.
"30 by 11; that's the sign take the measure of?" Roger Borg asks a caller to the cluttered workshop of his Perth Amboy neon betray, 419neon. "Okay. Color on the borders, color on the sign? Yep, yep. Both the lit frame and the letters are yellow? I'll labour up the price. Do you need a power supply or will you work that yourself?
Lost City: Applebee's Sign Kicking It Old School
I have knowledge of Applebee's is the very expression of the homogenization/deculturalization brute this blog rails against on a continuously underpinning—is there a more un-New York restaurant that anodyne, unctuous Applebee's—but the design and manner of this sign is very much in keeping with the affectionate of vertical neon sign one would have been base in Times Equal in the 1940s and 1950s, sane down to the arrow pointing you in the right operating. The restaurant it points you to is ugly. But the sign that does the pointing isn't.

A new and electrifying promotional fact arrived in the anciently 1920′s that took usual methods of marketing to another elevation. In 1923, Georges Claude and his French troop Claude Neon, introduced neon gas signs to the Mutual States. It was in this same year that the first neon sign was installed in the burg of Los Angeles, California. A Packard car retailer, Earle C. Anthony, imported from Paris, two “Packard” signs for his dealership which he paid $24,000 for. Of practice this was an tremendous amount of wealth to pay during that space for two signs, but the concept was new and in perfect accord although the renown of neon signs was not widespread yet. Today, this best Packard sign is located on a privately owned make-up in Hut Grove, Oregon, but can be viewed from the footway.
Telescope benders infuse a multifariousness of gases (ie. neon, helium, xenon, argon and krypton) to create a range of colors. When you look at the magnificent show of neon lights that be outstanding brightly on Broadway in New York and along the Shed one's clothes or on Fremont High road in Las Vegas, Nevada, they are as spectacular as a fireworks show on New Year’s Eve or the Fourth of July. Traveling across the homeland and around the superb, you will find a diversity of businesses still displaying the humongous craftsmanship of neon lights.
