    Recovered this afternoon from a fresh curbside pile of furniture/general crap in my neighborhood where a rent house is "throwing up" inbetween tenants. It was dirty (probably having been laying in the backyard there for awhile) but cleaned up nicely with a quick dose of 409 and elbow grease -- otherwise it remains in pretty good condition with only a small bit of damage where somebody, sometime, "removed it" from its former mounting bracket...?? <wink><lol>

    It is not 'vintage' in any way, but that it has obviously seen at least a few years worth of public service -- signs like this (with the city logo, anyway) remain currently in use all over town. It is double sided (both sides shown) measuring 4' long and 9" high.

      THANKS SO MUCH to blunderbuss2, kwqd, iggy, Brunswick, jscott0363, EJW-54, fortapache, & yougottahavestuff for stopping by and sharing the love for my newest street sign! I actually like it even more because I really *do* take a ride on that road every so often, it is a lovely few miles worth of 'there and back' drive on a pleasant weekend afternoon?!! :-)

      The next challenge: find/decide on a spot to *display* it someplace around here...?? <headdesk><lol>
