Louisiana Highway 1 route marker road sign Alexandria Shreveport 12×12
Louisiana Highway 1 route marker. Up for sale today is this Louisiana Highway 1 highway sign. Made to the exact 1961 state specification. This style was gradually refined over the years with varying levels of fidelity to the state outline, until the green-and-white color scheme was done away with altogether in 2008. The signs are now plain black and white. An original of these is very rare to find scrapped. Most of them have vanished from the back roads of Louisiana many years ago, replaced with the modern issue. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without paying an arm and a leg on the collector’s market. The sign is 12 by 12 inches, and weighs 3 lb. This is a high quality, heavy steel 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! Please do see my other auctions for quality Louisiana US and state route markers! Would you like a number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? I can of course make these signs with any route number 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Life doesn’t happen along the interstates. It’s against the law. Figure about 3 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.
