Here's an old marquee advertising the Montgomery Hotel and Bar in Gillette, Wyoming. The sign is often mislabeled as being in Buffalo, but it actually calls downtown Gillette home.

The Montgomery Hotel opened in 1911 and became a longtime local landmark. Its vertical neon marquee helped make the building easy to spot and added a splash of color to the downtown streetscape.

UPDATE: While the hotel no longer operates as it once did, the ground-floor tavern remains open as the Montgomery Bar. Known locally as "The Monkey," the bar continues to serve customers beneath the historic marquee, which still hangs above the sidewalk more than a century after the building first opened. 06-26

Check out this old-time bar in Price, Utah. The place may be called the Silver Dollar, but the signage out front looks a little more gold than silver. Close enough. The point still gets across.

The Silver Dollar has long been a familiar downtown watering hole, with its bold exterior lettering giving the storefront a classic small-town bar look. It is the kind of sign that does not need to do too much to stand out.

UPDATE: The Silver Dollar remains in operation in downtown Price and is currently listed as the Silver Dollar Sports Club. The exterior signage continues to preserve the bar’s familiar roadside look along Main Street. 06-26

Here's a nice roadside sign for Patsy's Niteclub. The bright blue neon and clinking cocktail glasses give the sign plenty of character and make it hard to miss after dark.

For years, Patsy's was a familiar part of Pueblo's nightlife scene, but the sign was always the real attention-getter. The animated cocktail glasses added a touch of movement to the display and helped make it one of the more memorable neon signs in town.

UPDATE: Patsy's Niteclub is no longer in operation. While the building remains standing, word is the classic neon sign featuring the clinking cocktail glasses has been removed from the property, leaving photographs like this as a reminder of one of Pueblo's former roadside landmarks. 06-26

Here's another tavern sign from Pueblo. This one advertised Gino's Lounge and featured a classic neon design that stood out along the downtown streetscape.

The sign's flowing script and bright neon gave it plenty of character, making it one of those neighborhood bar signs that looked right at home in mid-century America. Even when the business wasn't open, the sign did a good job of getting your attention.

UPDATE: Gino's Lounge is no longer in operation, and the vintage neon sign has since been removed from the property, around 15 years ago. The building is now home to the 7th Street Station but photographs of the sign help preserve the memory of another lost piece of Pueblo neon. 06-26
