Raleigh Dealer Neon sign from the 1970's???
I have looked for years to find one of these neon Raleigh dealer signs with the profile of a heron (bird). Anyone see one of them in recent times? They were about 18" tall and hung inside the dealer's window.

I have seen them on the bay once or twice, I'd love to have one but so far they have all gone too high for my budget.

I've checked the bay a few times over the years but haven't seen the old neon type yet. I imagine they can be a little pricey but I would love to have one.

Thanks. Believe it or not, I had one like that. When I sold it, shipping cost more than the sign.
