Description: Offered here is a super cool vintage hair salon advertising sign! A unique piece of retro decor. I'm unsure of its origins, but I'm assuming this sign used to hang in a storefront and may have also rotated. It's also more than likely a one of a kind piece designed for a specific business location. It remains in good condition with no rust or indications that it was ever really exposed to the elements, so it probably hung under a roof or overhang. The sign is composed of plastic panels with metal framing, is illuminated, double-sided and features 3D style woman silhouettes with her hair blowing in the wind. There is a Gulf Development, Inc. manufacturer sticker on the bottom with a date of July 1980. The sign originally had two fluorescent bulbs mounted inside and the wiring was original, however, the component was no longer functioning. Just a matter of old wiring and the sign probably not being used for several years or even decades. I removed the entire component and ran a standard lamp socket and cord into it (see photos). I put a bright bulb inside and the sign looks great lit up!The bulb is being left in there. A few scratches are present in places on the black borders and within the sign. The shadow outline seen around the silhouettes when the sign is lit is a result of a border within the plastic and appears to be the way it was designed. Measurements: 32" long x 12" deep x 22" tall Weight: 15 lbs. At this point, this sign would look great in a home bar, recreation/game room, garage or workshop. Also, it does stand up on its own, so it doesn't necessarily have to be hung from the ceiling. Feel free to ask any questions. Shipping will be via UPS Ground. Please pay within 24 hours.
