To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE November 24 Up for sale today is this Florida US 41 route sign. Made to the exact 1949 state standard, as used between then & the early 1950s along this famous road. Florida used the colored shields from the 1940s until 1993, but they only used the small cutouts until 1956. Route 41 is the longest north-south US highway, coming in at just over 2000 miles between Copper Harbor, Michigan, & Miami, Florida. the Florida segment enters the state just north of the town of Jennings & proceeds to Tampa, Naples, & Miami. the east-west segment across the peninsula was originally numbered US highway 94 before being renumbered in 1949. An original of these would cost many hundreds of dollars if it ever came to the market. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, for just a fraction of the price. The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout & fonts. It weighs about 4 pounds, 6 ounces, & is the correct size: 16 1/2 by 16 inches. 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.
