Description:
New York Neon by Thomas E. Rinaldi is an astonishing visual tour and a documentary inventory of historic (generally pre-1970) neon signs found in the five boroughs of the City of New York.
It features two hundred signs, identified by location, with information on their manufacture, date of creation, and the businesses that commissioned them.
In a generously illustrated introduction, drawing on documents including rare period trade publications, Rinaldi recounts the development of signage and the technological evolution of neon and examines its role in the streets of New York, in America’s cultural identity, and in our collective consciousness.
