Here's what it looks like up on the wall of the building that used to be entirely but (for) now is only partially Kokopelli Real Estate.
It's on black Dibond™, oh, wait, it wasn't actually Dibond™, it was a knockoff brand, Signabond™, (same thing, way cheaper) which is a sandwich of aluminum & PVC (polyvinylchloride) that's only 1/8" thick & way stiffer than just aluminum so it doesn't get all rumply; & it's got trim (normally used for channel letters) around the outside edge, so it pops out an inch from the wall. I siliconed it onto a piece of 3/4" plywood, so the trim would have something to stick to, after cutting a big chunk out of the middle of said piece of ply so it wouldn't be so heavy. The letters are done in vinyl faux goldleaf, which is not really like the real thing, but pretty flashy nonetheless (especially for Roswell, where the signage standards are, well, low). It's 4 feet high by 6 feet wide.
