Loveland Pass highway marker.
Up for sale today is this Loveland Pass sign, from the Continental Divide on US highway 6 in Colorado. Made to the exact US Forest Service standard used starting in the 1960s, and still in use to the present day.
An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport. Also, there are only a handful of them, and the state police know generally where they should be (not in your garage). So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing legal trouble - or a hernia.
The sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 7 pounds, 7 ounces. the state line signs in use in the field are much more colossal - this one is a precise rescaling of the freeway style sign down to a much more manageable 21x14 inch size. it is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors. (if you would like a larger size version, please ask as I can certainly make one!)
This is a high quality, heavy steel sign. 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
