Pictured here is Georges Claude, the “Father of Neon.” in the early 1900s with one of his neon experiments—technology that would light up cities worldwide.

The first neon sign in the U.S. was installed in 1923 for a Packard car dealership in LA, and people literally stopped traffic just to stare at it. That glowing red “Packard” started a revolution in visual marketing — and YESCO was right there in the thick of it, pioneering neon craftsmanship that would define the American West.

At YESCO, we’ve been part of the sign industry’s legacy for decades, keeping the craft alive and evolving with every generation of signs.

In 1920, Thomas Young Sr. started a small sign shop with a $300 loan from his father. Fast forward 105 years, and that vision has grown into a thriving business known for crafting industry-leading signs and delivering top-notch service.

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re reminded that YESCO’s greatest asset isn’t just our iconic signs—it’s the incredible people behind them. From our dedicated team to our valued customers, your hard work, integrity, and support is what keeps us going strong.

Here’s to 105 years of lighting up communities and many more years come! Thank you for being part of our legacy!
