Here in Toronto an institution for many of us growing up was " Sam The Record Man "
While the store closed years ago the big Neon Sign was preserved and stored and it was just resurrected and installed at Ryerson University in Yonge/Dundas Square ( Toronto's Times Square? ) to light up the sky again!
While I know many of you "kids" don't know what a record even is, This sign brings back fond memories of getting my allowance and going to the record store on the weekend to put down .75 cents for a 45 rpm record.
What about Iconic signs in your city?...Does any stir up fond memories from your
past ?

The most iconic sign in my neck of the woods would be the Hollywood sign.

It was a sight for sore eyes...bright and gawdy at street level, but it announced I was downtown!...
Did you ever see the Honest Eds Sign Laurel? ....here...I've attached it...It was dismantled earlier this year and the store closed last December.
