Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5 Castle Dome highway sign. Up for sale today is this Castle Dome, Horse Tanks, Quartzite sign. Made to the exact standards as used around 1915-1919 by the US Geological Survey, who signed out-of-the-way locations in the desert southwest to aid travelers. The verbiage at the bottom reflects the seriousness of getting lost in a region not known for easily found water supplies. The sign should say Quartzsite, of course, but typos were common during this era, and are just a quirk of history. An original of these, complete with the Department of the Interior, US Geological Survey text as seen at bottom, would cost many thousands of dollars if it ever came to the market. please note that I can make a guide sign of this style for any set of destinations. inquire about custom orders!

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.
