| This Mangum's sign originally advertised for Mangum's Western Wear. It is from the early 1960s and never had neon. The wording was changed on the sign when the store began focusing on Indian crafts. In 1991, the owner's daughter opened Beader's Paradise and the sign was adapted again. In 2009, the sign was repainted by a local art teacher. For more, see this website. [map] |
