Arrowhead Motel Gillette, WY	Mint Bar Sheridan, WY		Motel West Winds Wheatland, WY

The Arrowhead Motel is a rare survivor in this town of chain hotels. The Mint Bar was established in 1907. This sign is part of a late 1940s remodeling. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3. The neon still burns brightly on the Motel West Winds sign although the mountain appears to have been repainted a few times.

Casper Dry Cleaners Casper, WY	New Moon Café Casper, WY	Lou Taubert Ranch Outfitters Casper, WY

Casper Dry Cleaners sign must have had balls on top at one time. For more, see this website. The New Moon Café is a Chinese restaurant. Lou Taubert Ranch Outfitters was founded in Casper in 1919. They moved to this location in 1947. The store features nine floors of boots, denim, flannel, saddles, and tack. They opened another location in Billings, MT in 1979.

Wyoming Motel Cheyenne, WY	Plains Hotel Cheyenne, WY	Firebird Motor Hotel Cheyenne, WY	Redwood Bar & Lounge Cheyenne, WY	Town & Country Shopping Center Cheyenne, WY

The Wyoming Motel sign features an abstracted giant Indian. It probably had a lot more neon originally. For more, see this website. The Plains Hotel opened in 1911. This neon sign looks like it was either recently restored, rebuilt or a contemporary new build. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3. The gigantic Firebird Motor Hotel sign looks 1950s. For more, see this website. The Redwood Bar & Lounge and the Town & Country Shopping Center are two giant freestanding signs most likely from the 1950s.

Lariat Motel Cheyenne, WY	Cowboy Cheyenne, WY

The Lariat Motel sign has been stripped of neon but the painted cowboy is still adorable. It may have been named something else originally. I believe this Cowboy rooftop sign stands over a downtown bar. This sign also has holes where the neon tubing used to be. For more, see this website.
