Actual FOX sign for sale
I’m selling the FOX sign from the demolished Fox West Coast Theatre in Long Beach. The theater was knocked down in the 1980’s. I talked the demo crew boss out of the FOX sign off of the marquee. There is a photo of the theater on Cinema Treasure’s page for this theater. There is a post from me (LisaInLongBeach) on that page as well mentioning the sign.
It’s basically the letters FOX that were on the marquee at the front of this theater (shown in the photo). There were only a few items saved when this great theater was demolished and this FOX sign is one of them. It originally housed neon lights. The fittings are still there if you want to restore it to its original coolness.
Each letter is approx. 30" tall and 30" wide.

Can anyone please help us to find some projection room equipment to help us set up a small museum display. We are a small group so funds limited. We are after anything from fire shutters, amplifiers to projectors. It seems a shame to see things being lost in demolition.
All help greatly appreciated. We are located in Yorkshire
Please contact Darren on 07737 909058 or through .
Many thanks,
Please help us keep history alive as projection rooms are always forgotten.
