A Sign of the Times: Blue Pond Signs Celebrates Iconic U.S. Signage

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA, July 20, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ken Miller, President of Blue Pond Signs (www.bluepondsigns.com), announced today that an info-graphic created by the company of Iconic Signs of the United States is now available on the Blue Pond Website. Showcasing the real-time value of such signs as the Love Sign in Philadelphia, the Disney World Sign in Orlando Florida and the Route 66 Sign in Springfield Missouri, Blue Pond concepted the info-graphic to appeal to their nationwide customer base and raise awareness about their full-service signage line for business customers throughout the United States. The info-graphic can be viewed at http://www.bluepondsigns.com/iconic-signs-infographic.html.

"Creating a custom visual identity is essential in creating recognition in today's competitive marketplace," said Miller. "We wanted to show the creativity and history behind memorable and iconic signage that we use as the creative juice behind the creation of our custom signs and logos. We thought our customers would enjoy the innovation and study of the icons that drive countless visitors to key locations throughout the U.S. as they seek to bring consumers to their doorsteps with visual flair and appeal.

The info-graphic provides the history behind signs such as "Welcome to Las Vegas" and signs amid Times Square as well as a current day market value. For instance, the Hollywood Sign was originally erected in 1923 at a cost of $21,000. Today, the sign appraises at $250,000 - having evoked the imagination of more than 60 million television viewers and visitors to the actual precarious site located amid the Hollywood Hills.

The concept behind providing this information is not only to ignite the imagination to Blue Pond customers, but to also show the lasting value of a truly iconic sign. As Blue Pond Signs has served as a premier national purveyor of visual identity and custom sign design for nearly four decades, they have created quite a few such icons themselves, for brands including Avis Rental Car, Open Table, Bently Reserve, Domaine Chandon and Hotwire.

Blue Pond Signs provides custom business and commercial signage for companies seeking to make a lasting impression on their customer base.
