This sign has always puzzled me for its Art Work:

"large" Letters vs. “smaller” pony ?

I guess the company's decision was based on:

Grabing more attention with "letters" ???

Perhaps they wanted to emphasize the name and were thinking the Pegasus days were numbered.
Incidentally it's not just a less desirable sign than the predecessors but such a pain in the azz to hang.
I bought one at the NY Fleas in 94/95 for about $50 and put it in my wall.
When I moved I just gave it away.
In hindsight I should have kept it but it was a pain in the aZz.


RIP Kiwi

Thanks for chiming in, BIGFOOT.

In my case, I will pass on this sign since I prefer "larger" pony.

Have you hugged your "PONY", lately? wink

Today in fact. Was next to my 69 Mustang and 2 Pegasus shields.
Plus drove my 2004 Mustang.
