Maybe the earliest budweiser indoor neon
ever made. Cast metal and sits on its
own base. Could be earlier than 1940

Nice sign! A-B did produce some indoor signs in the late 30's as well so this circular Art Deco sign is not the oldest.
Thanks for the post. What did the earliest indoor bud neons look like?
Look at the picture from JARivers10 titled 1950's Bud neon. That is the earliest indoor sign that A-B produced and most of them are from the 1930's. The A and Eagle shield will have Stars and Stripes on it and after prohibition like on your circular one just has lines through it. Hope this helps.
Thanks again. So AB was making indoor neon signs BEFORE prohibition ended?
No, I can't confirm that. The Art Deco sign that I'm talking about, I date them to 1937-39 range.
I have one of these with what I believe to be original cord and it still works. Any info more would be great!
