signs: Art's Crab Shak

Art's Crab Shak

On Broadway not far from George Kaye's is Art's Crab Shak. The sign has been altered over the years. Art's has neon, and the martini glass at the bottom has the classic flashing bulbs, but lunches and dinners and Crab Shak are in different fonts. Crab Shak is in the dread Comic Sans font and so is probably the newest part.

  1. These signs and much of the front have been redone fairly recently. I graduated from Oakland Tech about 5 years ago and the exterior was very different. It was funky but felt homey and more period. As you mention, it just looks tacky now. I like your appreciation of signs though, keep em coming!
