Had never paid much attention to these light up signs until I ran across this one at an antique store , 1950's  16 inch  in a metal case like a clock . Light on the inside makes the outer ring look like neon. Got it home on the wall now.

I love a light up sign and those halo signs are my favorite.  I have a shopped refreshed one that came on top of a base that would spin it around.  Unfortunately it is missing the motor and one of the lenses, but still very cool.

Very cool,  love anything that lights up, that fact that it's Coke makes it even better!

I was just thinking, what would this look like scaled down and placed on something like an old soda machine that had a round marquee on it?
