    1. Nope. All new beams have been put in. The old beams were configured differently to hold the fish-eye sign.

    2. That's right! I forgot! I wonder if the new sign will be a 3d sign...

  7. Actually, the Manasquan Acme has gone through a great deal of painting and general fixing up. It almost looks like new inside. The same cooler boxes but cleaner and fresh looking. Replaced floor tiles and ceiling tiles. Fresh clean paint on the walls.
    I was to that the sign shattered into hundreds of pieces when it was removed. So save the gas, the sign is gone.

  8. Accidentally due to brittleness or deliberately?

  10. Does the wall decor look different in the first picture? They also unpainted or replaced some of the front windows.

    1. The wall decor is the same but they did paint over portions of it. Good catch with the front windows! They did remove the paint.
