ABSTRACT:
An edge-lit sign comprises a light-transmitting sign board 10 bearing sign information 13 adapted to be illuminated by light entering the board through an edge. At least one strip of electro-luminescent sandwich material 11 is provided which extends along at least a part of the length of the edge of the sign board and is arranged and energizable to illuminate the sign. If the sign is viewable from both sides, it may be formed as a laminate having an opaque central ply. The sign board may alternatively be constituted as a shelf.
