This stunning example is a relic of the storied Route 66. For years, it welcomed people to the Thunderbird Motel in Miami, Oklahoma. When lit, the plumage of the mighty Thunderbird was visible to weary motorists for miles. This monumental work of art is an absolute showpiece and embodies all the kitschy glamour of the age of neon. Almost certainly one of a kind, it would be a fitting centerpiece to any collection that celebrates the golden age of cross country travel. A photo of the sign as it was originally mounted in Miami, Oklahoma is available on our website. Surface is glossy and clear, white lettering shows minor weathering. Several instances of inpainting are visible upon close inspection, but it is professionally executed and unobtrusive.
