A great place for pizza if you don't mind waiting for the business to
open again. Pizza King sports a great multicolored sign. Located in Peru, Indiana.
UPDATE 10/06 : The Pizza King has moved from Peru and the sign has been
taken down. Pizza King is now located at 664 West Main Street and the old neon sign has been taken down and
put in storage for later restoration. See below for photos of Pizza King at its new location and the new plastic sign. Many thanks to Justin Eikenberry for update. 10-06

DiCarlo's Pizza is a great place for Pizza in the Stuebenville,
Ohio area. Not sure if this sign is an original, but the weatherized look
to it sure makes it look so.
UPDATE 11/07 : The sign is an original and there were shoppes in Weirton, WV; Wellsburg, WV; Follansbee, WV and Wheeling, WV many of which are still around. Many thanks to Charley Keenan for update. 11-07

Here's an old sign from an old pizza chain that seems to have been around
forever. Yes, it's the familiar sight of Pizza Hut. This one's
located in New Philadelphia, OH and is the original sign.
The neon sign for Papa Milano's Restaurant has been repaired. The first one was taken in October 2005. The recent version is from March 2006. It is always nice to see working vintage neon. Papa Milano's is located at 1 E Oak St in Chicago, IL. Many thanks to Dennis Dixson for photos and info. 04-06
