Up for sale today is freeway guide sign for US 1 and Key West, Florida. the sign is made to the exact federal 1957 standard that Florida used during the beginnings of the interstate highway system, complete with the red US-1 route shield.

An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport; they are long since retired from active use. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing a hernia.

The sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. The original sign was much more colossal - perhaps 8 feet by 8 feet or so. This one is a precise rescaling of the standard junction sign down to much more manageable sizes. The sizes offered are 24 x 12 inches, 36 x 18 inches, 48 x 24 inches, or 72 x 36 inches. it is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors. (if you would like a different size version,please ask as I can certainly make one!)

This is a high quality, heavy steel 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 route number of your choice, and not just this style, but others with the reflectors, the embossed style that other states used, 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.
