Description
This vibrant neon sign features a troubadour with a mustache playing a guitar; the music themed caricature, affectionately called Peppi, is the mascot of an Italian restaurant, "LA CASA" (lit in red at the bottom). Officially declared an Omaha Landmark by the Landmarks Heritage Preservation Commission in 2002, the sign stands proudly outside the original pizzaria location on 45th and Leavenworth and is a local icon in that Nebraska city.
