Rivers Signs & Neon
HistoryRivers Neon begin in 1947 when David's father, John Rivers, attended neon school in Chicago, Illinois. He soon became one of the best glass benders in Middle Tennessee. The beginning of his career was a humble one, bending neon in a smokehouse on his farm. He later moved into an old converted buggy stall inside of a barn. The working conditions were quite unfavorable as he bent glass during the hot summer months with several gas fires burning and without air conditioning. John's son, David, began his glass bending apprenticeship in 1984 at the tutelage of his father. Soon thereafter, their neon production facility was upgraded to a 1500 square foot neon plant--complete with air conditioning! Father and son worked side-by-side in a thriving business. In 1992, John retired and passed the torch to his son. David Rivers is now a Master Glass Bender and a talented neon artist. His neon is displayed throughout Tennessee as well as in other states.SpecialtiesWe have 29 years experience in neon manufacturing for businesses, collectors and home owners.
