Description:
Bold and full of retro charm, this salvaged “MAD GREEK” sign features large channel-cut letters in vivid red with a white edge trim. Likely once mounted to the front of a restaurant or diner, the letters are constructed from aluminum and acrylic, designed to be internally lit with either neon or LED (not currently wired). The individual letters sit on a steel backing rail and show authentic signs of wear, oxidation, and patina — ideal for retail, decor, or collector display. Sold as-is.
