The Boot & Saddle’s two-story sign has been reinstalled at Broad and Ellsworth. Foobooz reader Pat Hoban snapped the above picture over the weekend.

The sign was originally set to be relit in June but Len Davidson, who restored the sign and hundreds of other neon signs that make up his Philadelphia Neon Museum collection, determined more work was needed.

When the Boot & Saddle reopened almost two years ago, the restoration of the sign was a condition of the Boot & Saddle getting its liquor license endorsed by the South Broad Street Neighborhood Association.

And the long awaited restoration! Come check it out! 💡👢! #bootonbroad
