There are a lot of little facts
about the big letters in the sign.
For example, the words PACKARD ELECTRIC DIVISION in-
corporate the use of 1,380 pounds
of steel and enamel. The letters
weigh up to 90 pounds each.
Each letter is five feet high
and six and one-half inches deep;
all are important. The testing of
colors and the spacing of the
letters are other items of importance.
After all the research in the
above areas was completed, a
final test was made. Cardboard
models of the sign were placed
on the building to see that every-
thing was satisfactory and to get
the stroke ( width across the
face) 1812 inches. They are made

would look.
The actual mounting of the
