Can anyone share any information on these types of bridge signs? I couldn't find much on-line,thanks. Dimensions are 18" tall x 48" wide x 3/4" thick and weighs 75 lbs and is solid cast iron. First one of these I have come across. I am not sure if I am listing in the correct category so please excuse me if I have made a mistake. My father who is 80 thinks it may have come off of a old local railroad bridge.
Thanks for the love aghcollect,blunderbuss2 and nutsabotas6!
These are so cool. I have one for a bridge in Beaver PA.
Here is some great info on the company and JW Towle. http://books.google.com/books?id=IkfWAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA658&lpg=PA658&dq=john+w+towle+bridge&source=bl&ots=UFwKp7U7oE&sig=pAUMdieF_E2ZGHeqsy12NY0N1R4&hl=en&sa=X&ei=iVkmU-7nOKSRygGfi4GACw&ved=0CCUQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=john%20w%20towle%20bridge&f=false
