Just checked some of the going rates for used neon guitar dealer signs, not that I really need any more.  The old USA built signs from the last 50 years have tripled in resale value over the past ten years.  Unbelievable.  Even the new stiuff from overseas seems to have doubled in price over the past few years.  If you have an old neon dealer sign, hang on to it!

dangit!  I should've invested in old neon instead of nat-gas.

An old Hamer sign would be cool to own. A neon Yairi sign might go up in value...

I asked a neon artist if can make one similar to an original sign, this is what he said:
That's a very easy design to make.
To make it the same size as the one in the link (68cm X 40cm). It will cost about $300 shipping included.
But we can make this design much smaller because of it's simplicity. Probably as small as 40cm X 20cm which would cost $170 shipped.

Now, based on the cost of having one made; what size those who own one of the original neons think woul be best? I don't know about a small size neon. What do you think if you want one?
