United States yellow YIELD sign. Up for sale today is this yellow YIELD sign. Made to the exact 1961 federal standards. This is the first design of yield sign, introduced to clarify how merging onto those newfangled Interstate highways was supposed to work. Much like the STOP sign, the yield sign was originally yellow to denote a hazard condition. It was later upgraded to red and white to call more attention to the combined warning and regulatory nature of the sign. An original of these is very hard to come by. They were retired 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 19 by 16 inches, and weighs 4 lb. This is a high quality, non-reflective replica sign printed on heavy steel. 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 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 6 lb. Please note that while we have done everything we can to make this replica sign as close to the originals in appearance as possible, it is intended for use as a display piece only. Our signs do not meet reflectivity standards set forth in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) or any other applicable standards document. Always consult with a traffic engineer before installing any traffic control device along any roadway accessible to the general public. 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.
