Here's a photo of the Anderson Hotel, located between Penwell and Washington, NJ. The Anderson, which opened in 1795, was considered New Jersey's oldest tavern when it sold out and closed down in 2005. It was an old saloon and stagecoach stop from years ago. 07-06
Here's an interesting neon sign at Jack's Cantina in Niagara Falls, Canada. 07-06
Here's an old rooftop sign for The Forks Restaurant, located in the New Jersey town of Pennsville. The Forks sign looks like it was a blast to look at when the neon tubing was still on and working. The Forks Restaurant is currently for sale. 07-06
Located in a town called Rhinebeck north of NY City is the Fosters Coach House Tavern. Foster's was built in 1890 by Walter Decker, then purchased by Wally Foster who rebuilt the interior after World War II. More info can be found at the Foster's Coach House Tavern website. 01-07
They say that art (TV, movies, etc) imitates real life. Well here's a case where real life has imitated art. When the TV show Cheers aired, the exterior shots of the bar were filmed at a bar in Boston called the Bull & Finch Pub that opened in 1969. The Cheers signs were put up for filming the exterior shots. The TV show Cheers may only be in syndication, but the owners of the Bull & Finch have changed the name and exterior signage to the Cheers signage we've seen on the TV show. I can almost hear Norm ordering a beer, and Cliff's long-winded trivia. 07-07
Check out the familiar entrance to the place "where everybody knows your name." This Cheers in the Faneuil Hall Marketplace features an actual replica of the famous Cheers bar from the TV series of the same name. Photos of the famous Cheers location in Bunker Hill where exterior shots of Cheers were taken will be added soon. 02-08
The neon is rather eye-catching at Dave's Tavern in New York City. 07-07
The Michelob sign is a prominent neon display at night at the Tam in Boston, MA. 02-08
