Here's the historic Meadow Gold sign as it appeared in 2010 after the sign was restored. Local preservation saved this sign from the trash dump when the owners of its original site decided to demolish the building. Like its former site, the new location for this sign remains on historic Route 66.

After some down years, it was refurbished and became Cain's Ballroom in 1978, and has been home to the Sex Pistols and several bands and music acts over the years.
