thanks for posting this ! i'm trying to get two liquor stores near me to restore ( or at least fix ) their vintage neon+ incandescent signs.
these old signs are a thing of beauty .. and you photographed it perfectly.

Thanks for the encouragement,everyone.John,I also love these old signs and always photograph them when possible.This one is standing on its own on the street corner,there is no Cleaner in the area,I'll have to find another working business in the area and find out who owns it,in all the years I've passed by it has never been lit up.David-the area was popular up to the early '60's and all the affluence/influence began to move west of here,the sign looks to be at least 50 years old and maybe older.Simon,if you look at my other photo-Tybee,Georgia in the gallery I have details of the processs in the comments there for a similar question.The only lith I've found that works with Ilford W/tone is Rollei vintage and it works wonderfully-the 3 lith prints currently in the gallery were made at the same darkroom session with the same chemistry.
