Summary

Host Levar Burton takes a look at the role signs play in our everyday lives and goes behind the scenes of an advertising agency to witness the creation and placement of one of these spectacular, neon-lit signs in Times Square. In the featured book, a spunky old woman's request and a rather unusual dream convince Crabby Clarence the sign painter to make the most glorious and magnificent sign of his career and then give it away.
