The Big "B"

The B from an old Neon Sign for the Balboa Theater.  You can see Charlie my service dog reflected in the bottom opening of the B.Balboa Theater At night.  The Balboa incandescent sign.  Sam Goody neon signs.
This the "B" from an old sign from the Balboa theater in San Diego. I don't know why but the current sign is incandescent. Daniel my good friend went to see Spring Awakening at the Balboa in San Diego. He gave rave reviews of both the theater which has been recently restored and the play . I have never seen the inside of the theater myself. But I was very pleased to see it restored.


You can see a certain hero puppy in the reflection. The info for the theater is as follows:
