To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE November 24 Up for sale today is this Welcome to Brooklyn city limit sign. A sign just like this one hung on the Belt Parkway exit off the Verrazzano Bridge for many years - this is the 1976 version with the 50 stars added around the border for the bicentennial. Sebastian Leone, shown as borough president, served from 1970 to 1976. the sign shown here is an exact copy of the original sign, with the correct colors & layout & even the old style hand-painted lettering. An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport; this sign style has been out of service since the early 1980s. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing legal trouble... or a hernia. The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout & fonts. It is available in four sizes: 24 by 12, 36 by 18, 48 by 24, or 72 by 36 inches. 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 size. 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!) the 72 by 36 inch sign comes in two panels, & will be shipped as two 36 by 36 inch halves, with mounting holes along the top & bottom edges to accommodate two rails for stability. this assembly & mounting process will be left up to the buyer. 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, & not just this style, but older & newer ones, & even the classic mileage, direction, & city limit guide signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Please note: actual international shipping will be calculated on a case by case basis. Please contact us so we can calculate the shipping for you. "Life doesn't happen along the interstates. It's against the law." - Charles Kuralt Thank you for your purchase!
