History of Neon Sign

The neon sign is an evolution of the earlier Geissler tube, which is an electrified glass tube containing a "rarefied" gas (the gas pressure in the tube is well below atmospheric pressure). When a voltage is applied to electrodes inserted through the glass, an electrical glow discharge results. Geissler tubes were quite popular in the late 1800s, and the different colors they emitted were characteristics of the gases within. They were, however, unsuitable for general lighting; the pressure of the gas inside typically declined in use. The direct predecessor of neon tube lighting was the Moore tube, which used nitrogen or carbon dioxide as the luminous gas and a patented mechanism for maintaining pressure; Moore tubes were sold for commercial lighting for a number of years in the early 1900s.

The discovery of neon in 1898 included the observation of a brilliant red glow in Geissler tubes. Immediately following neon's discovery, neon tubes were used as scientific instruments and novelties. A sign created by Perley G. Nutting and displaying the word "neon" may have been shown at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition of 1904, although this claim has been disputed; in any event, the scarcity of neon would have precluded the development of a lighting product. However, after 1902, Georges Claude's company in France, Air Liquide, began producing industrial quantities of neon, essentially as a byproduct of their air liquefaction business. From December 3–18, 1910, Claude demonstrated two 12-metre (39 ft) long bright red neon tubes at the Paris Motor Show. This demonstration lit a peristyle of the Grand Palais (a large exhibition hall). Claude's associate, Jacques Fonseque, realized the possibilities for a business based on signage and advertising. By 1913 a large sign for the vermouth Cinzano illuminated the night sky in Paris, and by 1919 the entrance to the Paris Opera was adorned with neon tube lighting. Over the next several years, patents were granted to Claude for two innovations still used today: a "bombardment" technique to remove impurities from the working gas of a sealed sign, and a design for the internal electrodes of the sign that prevented their degradation by sputtering.

In 1923, Georges Claude and his French company Claude Neon introduced neon gas signs to the United States by selling two to a Packard car dealership in Los Angeles. Earle C. Anthony purchased the two signs reading "Packard" for $1,250 apiece. Neon lighting quickly became a popular fixture in outdoor advertising. Visible even in daylight, people would stop and stare at the first neon signs for hours, dubbed "liquid fire."

The next major technological innovation in neon lighting and signs was the development of fluorescent tube coatings. Jacques Risler received a French patent in 1926 for these. Neon signs that use an argon/mercury gas mixture emit a good deal of ultraviolet light. When this light is absorbed by a fluorescent coating, preferably inside the tube, the coating (called a "phosphor") glows with its own color. While only a few colors were initially available to sign designers, after the Second World War (1939–1945) phosphor materials were researched intensively for use in color televisions. About two dozen colors were available to neon sign designers in the 1960s, and today there are nearly 100 available colors.

NEON Sign Development & History


Neon signage first arrived on the shores of the United States in 1923. The inventor of the art form, a Parisian named Georges Claude, developed the technique for electrifying glass enclosed neon gas in 1910. 

While there are more than a score of possible neon colors on the market today, a handful, such as ruby red and bromo blue, are found in the vast majority of beer signs in the country.

Old school neon signs are typically much heavier than newer beer signs. The old artifacts are lit by bulky transformers supported by iron and copper wire. 

Although these old beer signs have a lot of heft, they can be dangerous and untested. More recently created neon beer signs tend to come with much lighter transformers and better safety mechanisms.

Popular neon beer signs include depictions of the famous Budweiser Frog, Red Dog Beer, and Corona. 

Many sports teams (both local and national) have partnered with neon glassmakers and beer companies to put out beer signs which simultaneously advertise the beverage and the team's logo. 

These signs sell at markdowns to businesses such as pubs and restaurants, and they can also quickly become collectors' items, particularly if a particular franchise or brand of beer goes out of existence.Some neon beer sign collectors import items from overseas, particularly from Germany, France, and England. 

There are other neon beer sign spotters who prefer Asian neon beer signs. Some focus exclusively on one brand of beer, such as Tsingtao or Sapporo.
