This streamline appearing motel, the Lee Vining, features a neon sign over the front overhang canopy. From a distance, this place looks like a gas station.

Don't quite remember where this motel is at, other than its off the 395. This sign for the Andruss Motel still appears to be in great shape.. perhaps new.

Update 04/06 : The Andruss Motel is in Walker, California on US Hwy 395.  The sign was erected in 1960 when Ray and Margaret Andruss bought "Hickson's Fish Camp" (built in 1957) and expanded the four room, knotty pine, rustic board and batten ranch style building into the "All modern...Water Cooled, Thermostatically Controlled Heat" with  "Heated Pool, Lounge Room with TV, Inn Room Coffee, Excellent Hunting and Fishing Area, " 12 unit, birch paneling, modern American Motor Court.  We are the seventh owners. - Mary Dayhoff Many thanks to Mary Dayhoff for update. 04-06
