Geometrically arranged bath tubs against a dark background. Three neon squares rise from the back of each tub.

Close-up of a smiling woman bathing in a tub full of soap suds while another woman pours a pitcher of water in. The neon rectangles rising from the back of the tub frame additional tubs and women mirroring the same actions in an "infinity shot".

A smiling woman bathes in a neon-lit bathtub filled with soap suds while another woman in the background uses a large powder puff.

Neon lit bath tubs in a Busby Berkeley-directed musical sequence from Dames (1934).

Neon shows up in several of Berkeley's elaborately staged numbers from the '30s and '40s, at times with safety as an afterthought!

Indoor sign. A metal arrow pointing downward with mounted neon letters reading "ORDER HERE".

The Iron Works Barbecue in Austin, TX. A great city to visit if you're in the mood for true #neon.

The magical glow of the Starlite on Ocean Drive is just one of the many eye-catching neon signs that can be seen all along the Art Deco District in South Beach. Behind the Starlite is the enchanting blue neon of the Colony Hotel. The Art Deco District has a line of hotels and buildings showcasing the 1930's art deco architecture.

Starlite that lights up the night. The glow of neon signs on Ocean Drive is just one of the many that can be seen along the Art Deco District in South Beach.

My photo of the amazing Streamline Art Moderne facade that is Murray’s, "Home of the Silver Butter Knife Steak,” open since 1946. The three-story building, originally from the 1880s, was remodeled with a turquoise square porcelain facade and a sleek vertical neon sign that says “Murrays” (along with three more horizontal neon signs that repeat the name of the restaurant, as well as “restaurant and “cocktail lounge”). There is a yellow cab taxi parked in front of the structure. (Photo taken in July 2009)

As I think of Minneapolis, this architecture geek is also thinking about the many cool buildings found throughout the city, including one of my favorites: Murray's, "Home of the Silver Butter Knife Steak,” open since 1946.

Lit neon sign at night. A pink elephant wearing a cap showers itself with water from its trunk. The body of the elephant has text reading: "ELEPHANT Super CAR WASH - OPEN".

Elephant Car Wash sign, a Seattle landmark designed by Beatrice Haverfield and fabricated by Campbell Neon in 1956.

Bea was the creative force behind some of Seattle's most iconic signs, including Ivar's and Dick's Drive-In.

Found it by chance on the last day of my visit. Glad I did!
