This is a Neon sign at the Starlite Motel in Mesa, AZ.   To me, this sign is the epitome of Route 66 Americana.  I love it.
The sign animates a woman diving into the swimming pool, which the Motel no longer has.
The sections of the sign light up sequentially to animate the diving woman.  Never is the whole sign lit up at once.

1st photo shows the sign just before and just after it lights up at dusk.
2nd photo shows the various stages as each section lights up.  Click on picture to see different stages lit up.
3rd photo shows all sections lit, using the magic of computer photo manipulation.
