Luna Cafe201 E Chain of Rocks Rd, Mitchell, IL 62040Phone: 618-931-3152
GPS: 38.761774, -90.088772 The Luna Cafe sign was installed sometimes in the 1930's and in the 1960's the name and man-in-the-moon sign was added to the front of the building. The neon sign was damaged by storms and removed and the neon sign out front went dark after forty years. Besides the nifty neon lettering and cocktail glass the arrow featured about 150 incandescent bulbs on each side of the sign. In 2011 there was a re-lighning ceremonies for both signs. Restoration of the main sign was helped along by a grant from the Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program. Photo(s): 2012
