Skyline Open Channel Letters Signage
Object/Artifact
Skyline Chili, a staple in many Cincinnatian’s diet, opened in 1949 under Nicholas Lambrinides. Lambrinides and his sons opened their first location, which has since been demolished, in Price Hill- a neighborhood with great views of downtown. The panoramic view of downtown Cincinnati’s skyline actually inspired the parlor’s name. The Museum acquired this sign in 2021, but it had been installed originally at the Anderson location in 1985.
