Minnesota US route 61 highway marker road sign Duluth St. Paul 1926 revisited

Description

Minnesota US 61 route marker.
Up for sale today is this Minnesota US 61 route sign. Made to the exact 1926 federal standard, as used between then and 1948 along this famous road.  Bob Dylan's famous album refers to this segment of this highway, as it's the same Highway 61 that connects where he was born (Duluth) to the Mississippi Delta, home of the blues.
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.
This sign is flat printed with completely accurate layout and fonts.  It weighs about 4 pounds, 6 ounces, and 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,
and not just this style, but others with the reflectors, the embossed style that other states used, 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.
