Blue Cirlce Neon Sign
From the photographer: "At one time, this was a neon sign for Blue Circle Hamburgers. That was a small chain of fast food restaurants around Northeast Tennessee, which made burgers similar to Krysals or White Castles, but apparently better. All of the stores in the chain closed decades ago, except for the one in Bristol, which just closed recently. This store after closing apparently turned into a market. It's located along US321 in Elizabethton, TN" // source: Brent Moore Flickr -- https://www.flickr.com/photos/brent_nashville/ (used with permission)
