A few doors down from the old site of the Elberta Theater is the Elberta Arts Center which houses one of the former neon signs.
There were two sets of formed sheet metal letters on the triangular shaped marquee. As the theatre was being demolished, long time Nashville resident Don Coulter salvaged one set of letters. They were then transported to Richardson, Texas where the restoration work took place. Bolin Neon in McKinney, Texas provided the neon work. The Callahams: Don Paul, Robert, and Max Allen restored the letters and mounted them on a wood box base.
Apparently the letters were originally painted maroon in color then painted white sometime later. The original builder, K. Lee Williams, liked the color maroon and used it as a primary color in most of his theatres.
