Chevron Gas Station Neon – NS2780
Every day at ArtFactory.com, the phone rings with a certain kind of call—the kind you don’t get unless you’ve built a reputation over decades.
Then the question comes, simple and direct:
“What would you pay for this… and can you come get it?”
Description
Rescue Real Americana
A lot of the people who call are Social Security recipients who supplement their income by being pickers. They’re not fancy. They’re not writing descriptions or setting up listings. They’re out there early, driving back roads, opening barn doors, walking old properties, and spotting the pieces most people would walk right past.
When they find something, they’ll send a few quick cell phone photos—sometimes the item is still sitting exactly where it was found; dusty, leaning, and half buried. Once in a while it’s so “as found” you can practically picture a chicken standing on it.
That’s where our name matters. ArtFactory.com has a reputation for paying the most—not because we’re reckless, but because we understand what we’re looking at, and we know what it takes to rescue real Americana and bring it back the right way. When the piece is right, we don’t waste anyone’s time. We send a truck, and we show up ready—cash in hand—and we haul it out.

This sign was one of those calls
The picker told us it came off the old Route 66 corridor in the Texas Panhandle, pulled from an aging barn where it had been stored for decades alongside old gas pumps and Coca-Cola machines—the kind of forgotten stash that feels like a time capsule. It wasn’t staged. It wasn’t cleaned. It was the real thing—dust, age, and the unmistakable atmosphere of a place that once served the road.
We went and got it
...Then we did what ArtFactory does: we saved it. Restored it for safe display so it could shine again, not as a reproduction or a “nostalgia print,” but as a living piece of American road history—something that carries the spirit of Route 66 the moment it lights up a room.
That’s the story of this sign: not just where it came from, but how it was found—the way real pieces are still found—one phone call, a few grainy photos, and a truck rolling out to bring a piece of America home.

“Found in an old barn in Texas alongside vintage gas pumps and Coca-Cola machines. It had been sitting for years—dusty and weathered—almost like part of the barn itself, serving as a ‘home’ for whatever was living there before it was recovered and restored.”
Pulled from an old Texas barn packed with Americana—old pumps, Coke machines, and shop relics. Time, dust, and critters had moved in, but the bones were there. After rescue and restoration, it’s back to doing what it was built to do: glow.
Out on the old Route 66 in the Texas Panhandle, there are barns that look like they’ve been holding their breath for half a century—doors swollen from weather, beams darkened by dust, and corners filled with the quiet clutter of American life.
