Albuquerque, Flagstaff, Los Angeles mileage sign. Up for sale today is this New Mexico freeway mileage sign from Interstate 40, listing the distances to Albuquerque, Flagstaff AZ, and Los Angeles CA. Made to the exact 1961 federal standards, as used by the state of New Mexico on its freeways. This sign, which was removed from the highway sometime between 2004 and 2009, is the easternmost appearance of Los Angeles on a normal highway sign. Distances of over 1,000 miles are rarely seen on typical US road signs! The original of this was most likely melted down and turned into beer cans long ago. Not only that, but it would a herculean effort to transport; the original of this sign is also 23 feet wide, so we’ve scaled it down for more wieldy display.

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 24 lb. The watermark and bear logo in the design preview will not appear on the actual sign.
