George Lay Signs, a fixture in the Wichita signage industry since its inception by George Lay in 1953, brings a storied history. George, a veteran who painted signs on military bases in the Pacific during World War II, started his career with Claude Neon Federal Signs before venturing out on his own. His legacy of innovation and quality is continued by his son, John Lay, who has led the company since 1991. Reflecting on the company's journey, John Lay stated, "After serving in World War II, my father George began his sign business, evolving from hand-painted real estate signs to a leader in electric signage and billboards. His philosophy was always about staying relevant through constant reinvention.”
