Welcome to New York City sign.Up for sale today is this Welcome to New York City, Mayor Edward I. Koch city limit sign. the sign was used from 1978 to 1989, and features graphics of the Statue of Liberty, World Trade Center twin towers, and the Empire State Building, in a classic red, white and blue color scheme.
An original of these is very rare to find scrapped; they are long since retired from active use. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without paying out the nose for it.
The sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 18 pounds, 5 ounces, and is the same size as the originals: 24 by 30 inches
. it is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors.
(if you would like a larger size version, or a reflective one, please ask as I can certainly make one!)
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.
