No, the American Sign Museum is not auctioning off itsvintage sign collection. But whatthe museum is doing for the first time ever is holding its annual fundraisingauction of donated sign products and services on-line. It all begins at midnight on AprilFool's Day. No foolin'.

For the last seven years, the museum's major fundraisingevent of the year has been a Silent Auction, held at its booth at theInternational Sign Association's SIGN EXPO. Consequently, the bidding was limited to attendees at theshow, who had a mere 2-1/2 days in which to bid.

By going on-line, the entire sign and imaging industry can nowparticipate. Here's a chance forsign and imaging to buy products and services, equipment and materials, they useeveryday. Items such as:

  • Neon equipment, materials and components
  • LED and lighting products/systems
  • Paints, coatings and laminates
  • Sign components and systems
  • Awnings and flexible face materials
  • Engineering services
  • Plastic and other sheet materials

And for the product manufacturers and distributors, thereare full-page ads in the industry trade journals and exhibit space at importantsign shows. There's something foreveryone, whether you're a sign company, product manufacturer, wholesaler ordistributor.

All items at discountprices! Plus, you'll have the goodfeeling of supporting your industry's museum. You'd be a fool not toparticipate.

Again, the bidding starts at 12 midnight Eastern StandardTime on April 1, 2011 and continues for 30 days and nights, ending on Saturday,April 30 at 5:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.

    • It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

    • Are there any recommendations for the best types of anchors to use for lightweight signs on EIFS?  <a href=" https://www.phoenixstuccocontractor.com/"> Phoenix Stucco Contractors</a>
    • Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
