This beautiful neon sign the Jet Stream Liquor was (and more or less still is) located south of the former Lockheed Air Terminal. The sign depicts the very graceful Lockheed Constellation 4 engined triple tailed transport of WWII and airliner of the 1950's. Unfortunately, this sign has been bastardized, and the "Connie" altered to look like (more or less, mostly less) the single tailed Douglas DC-3. For airplane and just "plane" people, this is a classic sign that will be missed as the WWII Burbank terminal area gives way to development.
Here's a neon shot of the famous Roxy in Hollywood. This is one of the music clubs that has featured great talent through the years.
Here's Gil Turner's liquor store located on the west end of the Sunset strip. This store can be well seen of the boulevard with its neon lettering.
Check out the neon outside of this Hustler shop in Hollywood, CA.
This Yahoo sign/billboard features a huge neon glow off the boulevard. The neon billboard is proving to be a real eye-catcher and sometimes hair-raising sight, especially as you drive along the freeway late at night.
