Score

On my way to work I pass the Catalina View Motel in Long Beach. They have a amazing sign and I always say to myself I want it! Well as I pass it today the Entrance arrow and vacancy signs are gone. I whip a U turn and park at the place. I talk to the owner and they are stashed in the back behind one of the rooms. So a deal is struck and they are mine.







I tried to ask why he took it down but his english was bad so I didn't understand his answer, I did notice they put the beacon light back on top of the pole where the 2 signs were. Check out the way they changes the vacancy sign, a little metal hinged cover over the "NO" on both sides. I am now in line for the big one when the day comes. I hope my neighbors like neon.

LA-NUT

L.A. Nuthouse Potato Chip box I got at the Rose bowl on Sunday. This guy got into a huge collection of press proofs for all kinds of products from the 40's and 50's. It was a feeding frensy as they were all scattered on one big table. I got a few pieces but missed a few since I wasn't there when they came out. I did get a whole box of promo sheets for all these different bath powders some generic but some great disney ones and space and cowboy ones too. It is days like that that keeps me going out at the crack of dawn every weekend.
