California elevation 10,000 sign. Up for sale today is this elevation 10000 feet sign. Made to the exact standards as used from 1947 to the early 1950s by the California Department of Public Works, Division of Highways. This figure appears only on one state highway in California: the old route 190 going up into the mountains from the Owens Valley along Horseshoe Meadows Road. This pass would’ve topped out at about 11,400 feet, but was never completed. If you would like a different number of feet of elevation, please inquire! An original of these, complete with the seal of the California Division of Highways, is very rare to find scrapped; only two of them were known to exist and they may not even survive! If they do, they would certainly go for thousands of dollars on the collector’s market. Here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without breaking the bank. The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 7 lb. And is 24 by 12 inches. If you would like a different size, please do not hesitate to inquire. This is a high quality, heavy steel, non-reflective sign – perfect for indoor or outdoor display. 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 destinations of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic mileage, direction, and city limit guide signs from bygone eras. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Figure about 9 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.
