Maze of the Week #98 - Elm Road Drive In Theatre Sign

November 13, 2023

Maze of the Week #98 takes us back to a familiar theme on the site, retro sign mazes ! The Elm Road Drive In Theatre Sign is a wonderful retro sign for a still operating drive-in movie theatre located in Warren, Ohio. You can see what is playing here. You’ll notice the website prominently features the wonderful sign ! They still have a movieline !

YouTube: Although it discusses covid challenges, I like that this short video shows the sign prominently !

The Maze: I went black and white and stopped despite such great colors on the actual sign. The textures from the physical sign look great as a maze. And of course I had to give a nod to some great maze movies !

Maze of the Week #85 - Chicago Theatre Sign Maze

August 14, 2023

Maze of the Week #85 is a sign maze of the Chicago Theatre. Built in 1921, this famous theatre continues to operate and hosts all types of performing arts performances. It is located in the Loop area of Chicago and is a part of the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. And of course it has a famous, great looking sign which interested me.

If you plan on visiting here is their website !

YouTube: You just need 40 seconds to watch this one!

The Maze: I went with a full color sign while adding the details of surrounding buildings in black and white. I put the maze in the gold colored border around the sign with the Start and Goal at the bottom. I really like the structure and hope you do too ! And I left out the corporate branding on top.

I hope you enjoy the maze. Maze download is available on the homepage. Check out my YouTube channel where you can watch this maze be made and solved !!!

Maze of the Week #78 - Elgin Car Wash Sign Maze

June 26, 2023

Maze of the Week #78 is our third straight sign maze from the state of Illinois, this one of the Elgin Car Wash in Elgin, Illinois. While this was made based off of a real sign it could really be one of many car wash signs around the country. This particular one is located at 313 Dundee Ave and appears to have changed colors recently ! It appears to now be the X-Treme Auto Spa if you are in town and have a dirty call.

Google Maps view: It looks like the sign is now blue !

Photo: Check out this one on flickr.

The Maze: Sometimes the simple things make really good mazes. Nothing fancy here. I would like a better sign statement. Here are a few I played with that did not make the cut:

WE MAZE CARS CLEAN

MAZE YOUR CAR SPARKLE

CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO MAZELINESS

KEEP CALM AND MAZE YOUR CAR

I hope you enjoy the maze. Maze download is available on the homepage. Check out my YouTube channel !!

Maze of the Week #68 - Welcome To Colorado Sign Maze

April 17, 2023

I made 19 sign mazes in 2022, but this is my first in 2023. Maze of the Week #68 is the Welcome to Colorful Colorado Sign. It is a simple, full color maze. While most welcome signs are standard, flat, metal road signs this sign is done with wood and sometimes stones. I like it.
