i am about to make a neon sign for a neighborhood salsa cafe. they want something sort of thirties/forties outline style that, when read, makes you want to jump in a conga line with delores del rio. i know nothing about typestyles at all other than the standard ones. any ideas/suggestions?

Maybe you could outline Savoye.

i thank you both for your suggestions. i really liked castaway pattyfab. but i found 'poster paint' and i think that is what will be used. if it all goes through, i will post what the sign looks like.
