Kentucky US route 27 Lexington highway marker 1926 road sign shield 12x12

Description: To maximize the chance your signs will arrive before Christmas, please order before December 5! Kentucky US 27 route marker. Up for sale today is this Kentucky US 27 route sign. Made to the exact 1926 federal standard, as used between then and approximately 1949 along this historic highway. Along with the several small towns that US 27 passes through in Kentucky, the route runs straight through the heart of Lexington, allowing relatively easy access to the University of Kentucky and Transylvania University. An original of these would cost many thousands 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. This sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 2 pounds, 8 ounces, and has been faithfully rescaled from the original size of 16 1/2 by 16 inches down to 12 3/8 by 12 inches. It 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 bygone eras. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. "Life doesn't happen along the interstates.
