la palma chicken pie shop sign - a photo on Flickriver

            Anaheim, CA

Back in April 2016 I shot several photographs of Anaheim's La Palma Chicken Pie Shop, which opened in 1956, not knowing at that time the fate of either the restaurant or the sign. About a week or so later, I posted one of those photos here on Flickr, along with the news I had just learned that the restaurant was closing. Thankfully, the Museum of Neon Art (MONA) in Glendale rescued the sign.

Here is one of the other photographs I took of this magnificent sign -- I now have three shots of this restaurant's signage posted here on Flickr (two shots of this fabulous neon sign and one shot of the signage on the side of the restaurant). I hope you'll have a look in my "2016" album here on Flickr to see all three photos of this long-gone restaurant.
