Lauderdale, West Palm Beach guide sign. Up for sale today is this Florida freeway guide sign for Ft. Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. Made to the exact Florida state standards used in the 1950s, complete with the custom font likely hand-painted! Only ever used in Florida. An original of these is very rare to find scrapped. Most of them have vanished from the back roads of Florida 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 flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 3 lb. And is 21 by 7 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 5 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.

Entering West Springfield, Massachusetts city limit sign. Up for sale today is this Entering West Springfield highway sign. Made to the exact state standard as devised in the early 1950s to resemble an open book; this sign style persisted until about 1975 when the more modern flat-bottom variant came into prevalence. As far as I know, none of these curved-bottom signs, featuring the since-retired FHWA Series A condensed highway-sign font, remain in existence. If one should show up, it would command a price of several hundred or multiple thousands of dollars. Here is your chance to own an example of this style of sign, without breaking the bank. I can make any Massachusetts town or city name sign; inquire about your home town! And I can make these signs in any size, too! The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 6 lb. And is 18 by 16 inches. It is a non-reflective sign – perfect for indoor or outdoor display. This is a high quality, heavy steel, replica 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! I can of course make these signs with any city name of your choice, and not just this style, even the classic US and state route markers, and the mileage and direction guide signs, from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Figure about 8 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.

Interstate 8, Beaches guide sign. Up for sale today is this California freeway guide sign for Interstate 8 toward unspecified Beaches. Made to the exact 1959 state standards, as used until the 2000s by the state of California on its freeways. This is an exact replica of one posted above the westbound lanes of I-8 at its interchange with I-5. The original is an exceptionally old porcelain enamel sign that has never been retrofitted with reflective buttons, which is quite the rare find! 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.

Florida US Route 1 marker. Up for sale today is this Florida US Route 1 sign. Made to the exact 1949 state standard, as used between then and the early 1950s along this famous road. Florida used colored shields-with US 1 receiving white-on-red markers throughout the state-from the 1940s until 1993, but they only used the 16½×16 inch cutouts until 1956. US Route 1 is the eastern seaboard’s longest highway, totaling over 1700 miles between Fort Kent, Maine and Key West, Florida. The Florida segment enters the state just north of Jacksonville and proceeds to Daytona, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and then between the keys across a series of bridges. This last segment, the Overseas Highway, was completed in 1938, extending the route from Miami to Key West. An original of these is very hard to come by. They were retired from the roads of Florida long ago, with most of them being destroyed and only a few examples circulating on the collector’s market. An original would easily run many hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the collector’s market. So here’s your chance to get your hands on a fantastic display piece… Without breaking the bank. The sign is 16 by 16 inches, and weighs 5 lb. This is a high quality, heavy steel replica 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 Florida state and Interstate 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 7 lb.
