The abundance of photos I have for each number will probably drop off significantly at this point.

This counts for 47 but not 55. 55 opens no earlier than 10:52:10 PM board time.

Hmm, no timely 55s yet. Here's one, a pair of US 55 sign-os in Strasburg VA, from my cutout-hunting days in the early 2000s.

This picture confuses me. IL-49 is signed as being to the right, but there's a 49 marker straight ahead in the background too.

The rare combination of state highway and county road: MN-55 and Hennepin CR-101 (former MN-101) in Medina. November 23, 2011.

I was ready to go with this one and my wife called me to bed. Oh well.

Seriously?  This is a nightmare to keep track of.  Can't we just say that it rolls over at midnight each day or something?

US 54, sorry for the crappy pic but it's only one that had 54 from the old garage in it.  :-D

So was this one supposed to be VA 55 instead of US 55? Like a vintage US/State Route mixup?

The sign is in error, the panel on the bottom right should have an ahead arrow AND a right-facing arrow. ^>
