Very cool. Just so you know, this sign is a Roto-Sphere. More about them here: http://agilitynut.com/sca/roto.html
When did it go? As young teenagers we thought it looked like something from the small ads in the back of dirty magazines and we always called it the 'sex aid'. I had forgotten all about it until I was watching Quadrophenia and there it was spinning around in front of the beach. I don't remember ever seeing it with the neon tubes working though.
