Heres yet another pet peeve, As a Sign Shop owner and restorer of Neon Signs. It simply annoys me when i see a repoped sign offered as the real thing on ebay, the sad thing is anyone who can bend glass can make a fake and offer it as an offical sign. A real good example of this is the imfamous George Strait "Coors Light" Signs you see here all the time, with the phrase "rare" well thats true since this sign was never made for Coors as George is under contract with Bud Light. Hence this sign is a damaged Bud Light sign and someone has simply placed new Coors neon in its place (really poorly done I might add, Coors never uses block letters) With a little research you can find out that mosr true OEM neons are made by only a handfull of neon manufactures like Federal or Fallon. So my point here if you want a fake hanging you collection thats fine, however if you a collector thinking your buying a classic neon, and get a fake instead well thats just wrong. Do your homework, look as the fonts, most of the time there a dead give away. See my other Guide on Over Blown shipping of Neon signs
