Worthington, MN		 Lien Electric
Worthington, MN
Rune's Furniture and Carpet was established in 1945. This sign might be from the 1950s or 1960s. [map]

The Lien Electric sign might be from the 1960s. These signs were mass-produced. These rubber door mats must have been mass-produced as well. These photos are from 2011. By 2012, only one of the plastic panels was still there it was displayed flat against the building. [map]

Spomer Classics
Worthington, MN
Spomer Classics opened around 2009. The museum displays the collection of Marv Spomer who began collecting around 1989. The focus is on neon signs but there are also restored cars and other things. In 2022, Marv decided to close the museum and sell off most of the collection. For more, see this website. [map]
