Been scouring the web for a picture of the old sign for the Tip Top Inn. Gonna have it painted for my man friend for our anniversary. That’s where we first laid beer goggles on one another. Can’t find a picture of it anywhere and somebody made off with the sign. Do you think the Mission Mission readers might be able to help?
Aww. If you’ve got pictures, or a lead, leave a comment.
Update: Johnny0 wins again…
Ta da, Tip Top Inn sign.
Somebody buy that man a beer.
Glad ribbity didn’t get his paws on it, at least not yet.
Thank you! Thank you!
I’ll show you guys the finished product.
My pal Mats?! the cartoonist/artist is making a whole series of signs for tourists and assorted people.
I’m commissioning one in oil for myself.
Have a look:

Huh, I never noticed the relief street names on the corner of that building before – you can see ‘Mission’ on the sign picture, and“26th” on the other side. La Lengua is very euro that way.
That’s awesome. I wanna see more local sign stuff. I did one that was partly the 17 Reasons sign:

Aw, the Tip Top! I spent so much damned time in that place. Somewhere in my stuff there’s a stack of old fliers for the Shimmer Kids and Casiotone and other such undergraduate gems there.
[...] Mission Signs, Or Lack Thereof Interesting raised relief street names at 26th and Mission, location of the former Tip Top Inn. [...]
Hey, just found another picture of the Tip Top Inn sign.
Does anyone know what ever happened to Ron Sansome they owner back in the 80′s?
don’t know what happened to ron sansome. jimmy is no longer with us.
They called me Mexican Tony. I used to wear a Silver Navajo Bracelet. I was on one of pool teams at The Tip Top Inn back in the early 1980′s. I remember Mark, Hell of a Pool player. Judy Nelson, was one of my good friends. I used to get free S F Giants baseball tickets from Fred Breining an Ed Whitson when they played for S F. A good few of the Giants used to visit the bar. I remember Vida Blue hanging out at the bar some nights. Vida would see me in the bar and he’d holler “BIG T, Wow! Ron Sanso, Mr. B, Jess the barber, George, Tom, Barbara, David Caverly RIP My Buddy. If you remember me or just want to chat about the Tip Top, leave a comment. Believe me, I’ll check the website for new comments. Thanks Mexican Tony
mp3 players sep 19, 2007 0 first hands-on with the rca jet stream mp3 player with kleer wireless headphones. since then, bikinis have had to overcome moral and cultural barriers to become what they are today, the most popular swimwear on the planet. in some places, they are still considered too risque for women to wear. sad as it is, there are actually countries where a woman would still be stoned if she were caught wearing a womens bikini in public. these women, usually living in and/ or bound by the dictates of religion, have to cope with a whole different swimwear situation. usually, this means muslim women. they have had to put up with swimming in all the layers of their various robes and dresses for a long time now, so understandably were overjoyed when (a man, of course) invented a “bikini” for muslim women. hey, bikini is just a word, right? now, instead of being weighed down by untold layers of heavy, soaked clothing, covering their entire body except for the face, they can get by with a light-weight layer covering their entire bodies excluding the face. modest when you think happiness lowyat.net -> trade zone -> garage sales -> music players and audio related accessories.
