Rising over the dilapidated cabins it has watched over for decades, the old neon sign for John's Modern Cabins in this photograph remains in remarkably good shape considering it hasn't been maintained since the 1960s or, at best, the 1970s. Rusted and pitted with time though it may be, we can still discern the sign's Art Deco heritage; a few bits of neon tubing remain, and even a pair of old bulbs cling to the sign's weatherworn surface. Behind the sign, we can see the ghostly green canopy of trees, as if the very forest is trying to shelter and protect the decaying piece of American history beneath it. The trees shall surely lose their battle—but in the meantime, we have photographs to remind us of what was.
