The 10th Anniversary Meet Neon Sign
I put that sign together and brought it to the LaFayette meeting in 2002. I bet someone has a pic of the sign with the 3rd signature on it. The Big Guy himself, Mr. Nagano, President and CEO of SIA. He was also in charge of SVX production while at FHI. He signed it low and in the center of the sign. The glass color of the SVX letters is called Ruby Red. I lost touch with the guy who bent the glass for me. Someone was going to come up with some sort of vinyl graphic for the upper part of the arc.
Its a cool sign guys. It can either be hung on a wall or in a window, or will free stand on its own on a shelf.
Its truly a one of a kind, there will never be another like it (unless someone else in this crowd is a neon bender) and I have lost the neon pattern itself. And as I said I lost track of the fellow who did the bending for me. I laid out the patterns, bombarded the glass, cut and laid the vinyl and did the wiring. Runs on standard 110V house current.
Been off the network for a while, long distance commute for about a year but retirement is now my middle name so will be here more often if I'm welcome. Wish I could do the Reading Meet but just can't.
