Hello "jlwcr11",

Here's a shot of Paulin's showroom from 1958...



I love the ultra-modern accents on the wall. The Paulin Motors sign was described to me as being "Sputnik" shaped, in the space-age style, right? To find a photo of it is one of my "holy grails", as I'm working on a book on Tucson neon signs. Another one I can't find is the Marylin Motel swimming girl sign that was once on Oracle. Another one is the neon cowgirl that was on the back of the screen of the Rodeo Drive In. I obviously hope that any member with photos of ANY vintage neon will post them, or contact me privately for scanning assistance.

Did you know that a good, clear sign photo could be used to create an historical replica that doesn't have to conform to many contemporary Sign Code standards? This is a marvelous opportunity for a business to add to the historic charm of the community, and attract customers at the same time.

Thanks,

Carlos
