Ontario northern development highway 1 route marker road sign Canada crest 1932

Description

Ontario Northern Development highway 1 sign.
Up for sale today is this Ontario route 1 sign.  This sign is made to the exact 1932 standard used by the Department of Northern Development, which was a separate roadbuilding entity from the Department of Highways until their unification in 1937.  The sign features the Ontario provincial crest; the only one of the three 1930s Ontario route shield types to do so.
(if you would like a different route number, I can certainly make that as well!)
The sign is 11 3/4 by 17 3/4 inches and weighs a solid 4 pounds, 4 ounces.
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!
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 others with the reflectors, the embossed style that other states used, and even the classic mileage, direction, and route shield signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
Figure about 6 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833.
Thank you for your purchase!
