If you look in the window you see the sign; flip it around and you see the typeface used in the site. I’ve always hated that style. Individual letters in their own pellets. I associate it with cheap modular signs of the late 70s, when neon signs everywhere were replaced with backlit modular plastic. The roadside view felt cheap and crummy back then.
Hell, it was cheap and crummy.
