This is a Mid Century 1959, forty nine mile scenic drive vintage genuine porcelain sign and it is in excellent condition, with vibrant and rich colors just as it had when originally manufactured. STILL has a nice glossy shine as it is actual porcelain. A true collectible piece that displays beautifully. The 49 mile scenic drive was created in 1938 by the City of San Francisco to showcase the city’s beauty to visitors and highlight major landmarks. This is the most iconic version of the sign and features the stylized seagull design which was created in 1955 by a local artist. Minor chips in the outer field, as well as some moderate rusting around the mounting holes, as is to be expected from being displayed outside and hanging in the elements. Really, beautiful layers of porcelain. It is USED and was hanging being displayed outside. Feel free to zoom in and check out all of the photographs for you, they are the best description of the exact sign. WEIGHTS: Approximately 2 pounds. MATERIAL: PORCELAIN ON SOLID METAL (real genuine steel, not fake reproduction tin junk, Magnet sticks firmly as verification). We try our best to use great lighting when taking our photos so that you will have a VERY accurate view of the exact item you will receive. We show all angles, front and back. So, please take the time to thoroughly look through all of the photos provided for you. Thanks for shopping with us here at Classic Gas and Oil Signs. Please be sure to check out all of the other collectable pieces that we have available! We focus mainly on Gas & Oil, Motorcycle, Train, Food & Soda, and Farming signs, but occasionally come across some pretty unique stuff to offer you as well. Enjoy the journey and stay safe, friends!

Candlestick Park guide sign. Up for sale today is this California freeway guide sign for Exit 429A from US 101, serving Candlestick Park. Made to the exact 2006 state standards as used by California on its freeways. An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport; many still enjoy their active service on the highways. The original of this sign is also over 27 feet wide, so we’ve scaled it down for more wieldy display. Here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing legal trouble… The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 10 lb. And is 42 by 10 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 12 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.

This sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 7 lb. And is 21 by 18 inches.
