Entering West Springfield Massachusetts city limit highway road sign 1950 18×16
Entering West Springfield, Massachusetts city limit sign. Up for sale today is this Entering West Springfield highway sign. Made to the exact state standard as devised in the early 1950s to resemble an open book; this sign style persisted until about 1975 when the more modern flat-bottom variant came into prevalence. As far as I know, none of these curved-bottom signs, featuring the since-retired FHWA Series A condensed highway-sign font, remain in existence. If one should show up, it would command a price of several hundred or multiple thousands of dollars. Here is your chance to own an example of this style of sign, without breaking the bank. I can make any Massachusetts town or city name sign; inquire about your home town! And I can make these signs in any size, too! The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 6 lb. And is 18 by 16 inches. It is a non-reflective sign – perfect for indoor or outdoor display. This is a high quality, heavy steel, replica sign. Accept no imitations that may be one-third this price, but are one-tenth the quality. No cheap tin to be found here, with the wrong fonts, layouts, size, shape, or any other manner of embarrassing imperfection. This one will make even the most discerning collector stick their nose into the sign, as it looks that good from that close! I can of course make these signs with any city name of your choice, and not just this style, even the classic US and state route markers, and the mileage and direction guide signs, from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Figure about 8 lb. The watermark and bear logo in the design preview will not appear on the actual sign. We have begun adding a watermark because we have had problems with other companies copying our artwork to make lesser-quality imitations. You will only get this high level of quality in design and materials from Signs by Jake. Life doesn’t happen along the interstates. It’s against the law.
