What is your favorite Jacksonville sign?

[BackinJax05]

There was alot of discussion about the old Krispy Kreme sign on Cassat Ave. KK plans to rebuild the store. YAY! Many of us, myself included, have emailed Krispy Kreme to restore the sign. That got me thinking: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE JACKSONVILLE SIGN?

As much as I like the old Krispy Kreme sign, my personal favorite is the Peninsular Pest Control Service sign on Phyllis Street, facing I-10.

Maxwell House - hands down.

Maxwell house is pretty iconic, but I'm going to have to go with peninsular pest control.  That thing is a beacon at night.

The KK in Gainesville has the same sign but doesn't have a drive thur. And I can't believe I forgot about the old 666 sign that was a true classic darn!

It's a two-fer: The Joe Motel with Chopstick Charlie's.
You know where it is...

[cayohueso]

Sorry, just saw blizz01 claimed those. OK...Chicken Koop and......Gator Lodge.

Is it possible to count the 7UP/formerly Canada Dry can as a sign?

I like the Tom Trout sign, and the rooftop ones for 11E and the Carling; I miss, among others, the "home of Independent Life" one on the northside that depicted the building.

G-ville also has that nostalgic Arby's sign, there's something about the charm of an old school sign.

I vaguely remember the 666 sign; Does anyone have a pic of it by chance?

Bless you! And yes, the Maxwell House sign is cool, too. The dripping coffee almost makes me want a cup.
