Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for July 18, 2020

5 miles down the road there’s one 6” bigger

This is like the “world’s biggest thermometer” in Baker, California … where the sign is the attraction (the thermometer is essentially a 134-foot tall structure, all neon and other lights).

In fact, Wikipedia calls it “a steel electric sign”.

That sign would never survive Santa Ana winds.

Like being a Kardashian. Famous for being famous. Oh, and making a sex tape.

Geezus, just look at the size of that mother!

“I wanna see the sign dad. Can we stop and see the sign? Pleeeease… "

I miss the days of going up and down US-301 (I-95 was not completed then) and seeing signs for “South of the Border” for two state’s worth of travel.

they have a sign museum in cincinnati……

I miss the Burma Shave signs along the old highways. Anyone remember those?

The sign had the blessing of the Department of Redundancy Department.

Back then even gas stations had a two-headed Gila Monster and the world’s largest tarantula.

Talk about distractions! But I did like them

Only 250 more miles to the Corn Palace.

I’d stop for that…

Really surprised someone hasn’t done that yet. Or have they?

No way am I gonna sign that. There’s no find print to read.
