The Impact of Neon Signs

The technology behind neon signs was invented in 1898, but it was popularized through the early 20th century. In the 1920s, neon signs brought cities alive, never before had such a vibrant form of signage been seen. Neon signs captivated entire populations and this is the reason why they are still popular to this day. Vital Signs loves working with neon signs and we believe that they are valuable.
Every major city center features neon signs in some way. Think of Hong Kong, the city is blooming with light, and hanging from almost every single building are neon signs. The same can be said for Times Square throughout the history of New York. Neon signs offered businesses a method to compete with each other; it became a contest for companies to create the largest and grandest neon signs in their large-scale advertising wars.

Even today, we still see neon signs. They are popular because of their nostalgic feel and because they still provide many benefits. Neon can be seen during both day and night. However, at night, it stands out the most. It also has a fairly reliable lifespan. Sadly, a myth regarding the short lifespan of these signs has always existed, but it is entirely untrue. If a business is looking to create an image, or they want to tap into the potential of neon, it is limitless, and we highly recommend it.
