A lamp base houses a source of black light. An upstanding transparent acrylic sheet is edge lit by the black light source. Fluorescent paint on the surface of the acrylic sheet is excited by the black light, which causes the sign to light with an appearance somewhat similar to the appearance of a neon sign. The acrylic sheet is designed to snap into and out of the lamp base so that one sign may be substituted for another, quickly and easily.
