Got my RCA signs from Texas today

Larger than I thought they would be, came with neat flasher sockets (for 40-watt bulbs) for behind the plastic front pieces. There were 4 of them total, inside the factory RCA box. Any guess on the age of these? My guess will be early to mid 60's.

Yes, early 60's seems right to me, maybe just before RCA started using the name "New Vista".

Well I think that they look great and I am not going to call you spoiled. Not like you sit back and people knock your door down trying to give you stuff.

Cheers Mate,

I believe the changeover came in 1969. It didn't happen overnight; plenty of things went out the door with one logo on the front and another on the tubes or the paper label. I think the '2000' was the first set to use the new logo.
