Delaware Turnpike sign.
Up for sale today is this Delaware Turnpike sign. Made to the exact state standard used from 1963 and is still in use today. The sign features the state outline and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway name, as well as the more general Delaware Turnpike name. The turnpike is a 13.34 mi (21.47 km) stretch of road from Newark to Newport, Delaware, and is a part of Interstate 95.
An original of these is very rare to find scrapped. 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. It weighs about 1 pound, 15 ounces. This sign is a precise rescaling of the freeway style sign down to a more manageable 14 by 10 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. 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
