From glowing glass tubes to towering roadside icons, we’re stepping into the electrifying world of neon signs!
In this video, we visit the American Sign Museum in Cincinnati, home to one of the largest collections of vintage signs in the world. We explore how neon signs are actually made — from heating and bending glass by hand, to filling tubes with gas, to the transformers that bring them to life. Along the way, we uncover why neon looks so bright, how different colors are created, and why these signs became symbols of American roads, diners, and motels.
