A soon-to-be-released booklet from the Tulsa Foundation on Architecture (TFA) is called Tulsa Vintage Neon. It features photography by Ralph Cole and is printed on durable, high gloss stock. The booklet is the result of a citywide inventory of Tulsa's glowing billboards. Copies are available for only $7.95 from TFA.

One of Tulsa's most notable survivors is the Sheridan Lanes sign. It's a great postwar example of animated neon signage. If you'd like to have a look for yourself go to 31st Street just east of Sheridan in Tulsa. But wait until dark!
You can purchase the new Tulsa Vintage Neon booklet and other cool stuff from the TFA online store!
