Just thought I would share this very old neon sign , Deserves to be preserved . Old motel is in legation with the IRS from the information I gathered, I believed a lot of people have been trying to buy it over the years .

that is the coolest sign I have ever seen. I bet it was (is) a motion sign, as the straight line in the bow would simulate the arrow between the 2 horizontal panels firing.

Way cool, thanks for posting. Killer sign. I've been picking up motel signs these last few years, few here and there anyway. My folks operated a small motel when I was a kid so these are just too cool IMO.

Not sure what the laws are in New Mexico, might be by county or city ordinance too. I stopped to check on a sign in Arizona that appeared to be in harms way, motel being demolished, but the sign had to be saved by law. Might be same there...
