spent a few days last week in my hometown on a rare visit. drove past my elementary school & high school, wandered the old neighbourhoods, & revisited some historic haunts. I’ve always had a thing for interesting & vintage neon signs.
the neon sign for powell villa in outer se portland was likely installed in the late 1950s.
avalon theatre, opened as the sunnyside theatre in 1912. the avalon sign likely dates from 1925.
