Lanz neon sign

The latest donation to the Museum of Neon Art (MONA) is more complicated than it may seem. This cursive script text, Lanz, is about twelve feet long with beautiful curls, but what makes it so amazing is that it appears the can was illuminated with only two tubes of neon. Judging by the four electrode holes in the can, two holes per tube, there were only two tubes lighting up this long and curly sign. I find it absolutely amazing.
