El Sahuaro Motel Sign
How the sign looked when it came in March 2021.

El Sahuaro Sign
The El Sahuaro Motel had to be removed from its location at 303 W. Flores. The sign was sanded to find the original colors. The neon for El Sahuaro was tested and found to be green. As of now, we are not able to find original artwork for the cactus. We continue to search for old photographs. |

Sign Restoration
This awesome group of people signed up for our two day restoration class to restore the Grant Stone Shopping Center sign. They removed neon, letter housings, stripped the sign can and began repainting. Stay tuned for an update on the sign progress and the evening lighting ceremony.

Installed this cute CVS neon sign on the corner of the sign yard. This sign came from the CVS location at Campbell and University Avenue. It is neon. This may be a sign created specifically for that location, so we don't know if there are others like it. |
April 2020
We have been busy during the Covid -19 pandemic adding new displays. This is one of our changes that you will see when you come to the museum. |
