A Legendary Sign

Signshop: Some signs are legendary, and the Banshee identity sign for the new roller coaster at Kings Island amusement park in Mason, Ohio lives up to the mythological creature it was named after. Hardly a harbinger of doom, the Banshee sign actually proved to be a good omen for Exhibit 3 Fabrications, LLC (www.e3fab.com) of Erlanger, Kentucky.

This was a pretty cool article. Really cool signage is often under appreciated. Rides, shows, and attractions will get tons of press and appreciation but the signs that go with them are often overlooked, especially when it comes to their production process. I love how detailed this article was in describing the sign building process, especially when it came to techniques and materials used. These sort of build process write ups I find really interesting to read, and sometimes to produce as well.
