Our family entertainment in the early 60s was often a drive around town and this sign was a favorite. I watched the multi-frame animation until it was completely out of sight.
 

TBadd - Love the site! You know that just like you, I dig the old icongraphy of the US. England has castles - we have architecture influenced by popular culture. Fantastic pics. One complaint, though -- where's the RSS Feed? Always better for the newreader to notify me of a new post rather than having to randomly check!

Also, you ought to repost you pictures from the old Shriner Hall here. (I can't remember if it was Tulsa or not. But, hey, you can always momentarily break theme.)
 

Thanks for the comments!

Doh! I forgot to link to my newsfeed. There's an RSS button available now.
 

If I can find them in my files, I have a couple pics of the Sur-Kill Chemical Company sign. It used to be on Cherry St where the Atomic Burrito is (AB is still there, isn't it?)
 

I'd love to see that Su-Kill sign! You can send any you'd like to tbaddleyATgmailD0Tcom.
 

I love this site; what a lot of work you have done! I was born, raised and still live in Tulsa. I love the old familiar landmarks that I have seen since I was a kid. I especially liked the picture of the old Mayo Motor Inn sign. My Dad worked there when I was very young; 3 or 4 yrs. old. He would always let me ride up on the 'lift' and take me across to the Mayo Hotel coffee shop and buy me a cherry limeade. I miss my Dad and I miss those great days! Keep up the good work!
 

Since I have lived in Tulsa all my life I remember so many of the pics you have posted. I loved looking at all the old Tulsa landmarks. There are so many that are gone forever. There use to be a totem pole and wigwam on Admiral that I loved to look at as a kid.
I enjoyed seeing the Neon signs, especially the one that is reads "Service". I would know that building anywhere. My dad worked there from the time he was 15 sweeping floors til his death in 1984. It started out as Fuller White and then became Bill White Chevrolet. He went from sweeping floors after school to being one of their top "Tune-up Mechanics". I have pictures of the inside of all the mechanics and office people. The took everyone's picture and put in in a little book that they gave away as advertising.
Thanks for the memories. I will look for more to come.
 

I love the website. I can remember some of the old buildings and signs. Thanks for the pics and info.
