Signs by Jake US Route 99 highway marker road sign Main Street of California shield 12x12

Brand: Signs by Jake

US Route 99 route marker.

Up for sale today is this US 99 route sign. Made to the exact 1957 standard as used in various states along this famous road. This sign style was invented by the state of California in 1957, and adopted by the American Association of State Highway Officials for installation in conjunction with the brand new red, white and blue Interstate route markers until the federal standards of 1961 were ready. Though the style was supplanted by the 1961 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, several states used this sign style for many years, and California continues to do so to this very day.

An original of these is very hard to come by. In most parts of the country, they were retired from the roads long ago, with most of them being destroyed and only a few examples circulating on the collector's market. An original would easily run many hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the collector's market. So here's your chance to get your hands on a fantastic display piece...without breaking the bank.

The sign is 12 by 12 inches, and weighs 2 lb. 14 oz.

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!

Please do see my other auctions for quality state and Interstate route markers!

Would you like a number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? 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.

"Life doesn't happen along the interstates. It's against the law." —Charles Kuralt

Figure about 4 lb. 14 oz. for shipping, packed carefully and mailed from zip code 61833. Our signs are only printed when you buy them. Allow about 10 business days for manufacturing, in addition to the usual delivery time.

The watermark and bear logo in the design preview will not appear on the actual sign. We have begun adding a watermark because we have had problems with other companies copying our artwork to make lesser-quality imitations. You will only get this high level of quality in design and materials from Signs by Jake.

Thank you for your purchase!
