Molinelli Jewelers Neon Street Clock — John Margolies, 2004

Bold red neon meets a brilliant blue sky in John Margolies's 2004 photograph of the Molinelli Jewelers street clock on Main Street in Pocatello, Idaho. A large circular clock anchors the towering commercial sign, framed by illuminated “Molinelli Jewelers” lettering above and a striking “Diamonds” panel below.

Part of Margolies's celebrated photographic record of American roadside and commercial architecture, the image preserves a distinctive piece of Main Street visual culture. Strong geometric forms, vintage neon, saturated color, and the neighboring streetscape combine to create an expressive portrait of American commercial design.
