- The sign that defines all motion signs,the Hamm's Scenorama.There are 2 versions,one has a round logo insert on the left.These have value even if they don't work-for parts.People think they are worth thousands,but in reality,they can be had for about 800 here in MN.

Re: From the land of sky blue waters-HAMM'S archive
I went to look at a Coors lighted sign from Craigslist - it was cool, a mountain stream that changed from winter to summer via a light moving back and forth on a chain drive - got it for $25... asked the guy if he had anything else and he shows me the classic Scenerama as shown above... that was a little pricier though, 75 bucks. Best CL score ever for me.
I'm constantly finding good cans... in my mailbox. *** My third year of waging Schlitzkrieg on the Flint Hills of Kansas ***

FLAWED SIGN! - Hamm's self framed cardboard beer sign [33" x 27"]
1940's artist Herb Chidley - sign purports to list 46 different fish,
numbers 19 & 26 do not exist, what should be # 37 just says 7
one extremely graphic, & rare breweriana collector's piece.
circa 1940's . . .

A couple Hamm's outdoor sign plates I acquired recently. Thinking about mounting one on some pegboard wood with a couple or three fluorescent bulbs behind it. Any thoughts on how this might work or suggestions on mounting/framing?
