Vintage Metal Sign

Columbia River Gorge US Forest service sign. Up for sale today is this sign detailing directions to various attractions in the Columbia River Gorge area. Made to the exact standards as used from the 1910s to the 1930s by the US Forest Service to guide hikers along the trails, roads, and highways so they wouldn’t get lost and possibly eaten by bears. The signs were posted in the National Forests of all 50 states; this one is from Oregon. Designed in the style of the signs of the early 20th century, this sign is printed to the highest standards of quality on heavy steel with great gloss to replicate the old-school porcelain look. It is 20 by 16 inches, and weighs about 8 lb. 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! Would you like a National Forest or set of destinations not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? I can of course make these signs with any forest name of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic city limit and route shield signs from bygone eras. 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 10 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.
