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.

California One Way sign. Up for sale today is this California One Way highway sign. Made to the exact 1971 state specification that was in use until 2006, when California began using the (boring) federal standard one-way sign, which is identical, other than being on a rectangular blank. Nonetheless, the five-sided sign remains a familiar sight along California’s streets, and sometimes pops up elsewhere; a few examples exist in Las Vegas, for instance. I can also make a left-facing sign if desired. Just request “left arrow” in the personalization box at checkout! An original of these is very rare to find scrapped. Many of them have vanished from the back roads of California, replaced with the modern issue. The authorities know where the rest are supposed to be-on their posts, not in the trunk of your car. So here’s your chance to get your hands on a fantastic display piece… Without chancing legal trouble. The sign is 21 by 7 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.

Certain states used the variety with buttons, others without the black border-of the 66 states, this style of sign with the thick border and wide numerals was most often found in New Mexico and Texas. This style was supplanted by the subsequent MUTCD of 1971, but several states still have surviving examples with various route numbers on them. Route 66 needs no introduction – it’s been the historic Mother Road, from John Steinbeck to Bobby Troup, and has arguably become even more famous since its formal decommissioning between 1964 and 1985. 66 has become the ultimate lost highway, the road trip that everyone takes.. Get your kicks, on route 66! An original of these can be very hard to come by. Most of them were destroyed, and only a few examples circulate on the collector’s market.
