Glendora and Covina guide sign.
Up for sale today is this Glendora and Covina guide sign. Made to the exact standards as used from 1929 to 1934 by the Auto Club of Southern California. this guide sign was posted in Glendora, at the junction of Foothill Boulevard (US highway 66) and Glendora Boulevard, as seen in the original image. (please see my other auctions for the cross-road sign, pointing to Azusa, Los Angeles, Claremont, and San Bernardino.)
The original of this guide sign, complete with the logo of the Automobile Club of Southern California, would cost many thousands of dollars - if it even survives! this is a faithful remake to the correct size (36 x 15 inches) manufactured on heavy steel with the correct layout, fonts and colors. it weighs about 13 pounds, 12 ounces. It 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!
Would you like a number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? I can of course make these signs with any city name of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic mileage, direction, and route shield signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
Figure about 16 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833.
Thank you for your purchase!
