Title: Maybe makes up for the Vendo Galaxy loss...maybe Post by: cormy on January 12, 2016, 09:44:48 pm Been working on this for a while. Left a note months ago. Just took it down last night in 30 degree temps at night..didn't want to lose this one.. :laugh:
Title: Re: Maybe makes up for the Vendo Galaxy loss...maybe Post by: SodaShopNick on January 12, 2016, 09:48:24 pm Very cool. So was it just an old sign hanging for an old ice cream shop? Also, is that the original color of white on the light up portion (assume it lights up)?

I know where another one is..so time to concentrate on number 2. Title: Re: Maybe makes up for the Vendo Galaxy loss...maybe Post by: davethebirdman on January 13, 2016, 02:14:09 am love the sign. Even better when you know where it once hung.

Title: Re: Maybe makes up for the Vendo Galaxy loss...maybe Post by: ajf5577 on January 13, 2016, 10:36:00 am Yeah, that makes up for the Galaxie Dispenser. Youll find another dispenser. These signs just hanging around in the wild are getting few and far between.
