Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5 California US 50 route marker. Up for sale today is this California US 50 route sign. Made to the exact standards as used between 1928 and 1934 along this historic highway. US route 50 is one of the most important highways in northern California, having been an important transportation corridor over Carson Pass as a wagon trail road, to the Lincoln Highway of 1913, to its inception in 1926 as part of the US highway system, and beyond, as one of the surviving few U.S. highways left in California today. An original of these, complete with the yellow diamond logo of the California State Auto Association, 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. The sign is 16 1/4 by 15 3/4 inches, and weighs four pounds and six ounces. This sign style was the first ever US route marker ever posted in California, between 1928 and 1934. Only the first six years of production got the distinct and ornate yellow logo. This is a high quality, durable sign made of heavy steel. 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! Please do see my other auctions for quality California US and state route markers! 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. "Life doesn't happen along the interstates.
