Brooklyn New York Kings Highway West 8th St. Humpback road sign TWO SIDED 22×12
Brooklyn, New York Kings Highway sign. Up for sale today is this Brooklyn, New York sign for Kings Highway, which faced West 8th Street. The sign is made to the 1910s specification used by the city to designate this famous street in the heart of Brooklyn. This is the last style of porcelain sign before retroreflective signage, unfortunately not in the distinct shape any longer, were introduced in 1950s. Take this opportunity to show your love for New York and own a piece of roadside history all in one! I can of course make any street, any block number, found anywhere in the Big Apple, and everywhere else too! This sign is double-sided. Each side features a complementary legend: one side with the mounting holes on the left, the other side with the mounting holes on the right, so that they point in the same direction on the physical sign. An original of these is very rare to find scrapped; they have long since been retired from service. So 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 5 lb. And is 22 by 12 inches. If you would like a different size or route number, please do not hesitate to inquire. This is a high quality, heavy steel, non-reflective sign – perfect for indoor or outdoor display. This is a high quality, heavy steel, non-reflective remake sign – perfect for indoor or outdoor display, and very much reminiscent of the classic porcelain appearance of the original signs. 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 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 bygone eras.
