Who just called CT a sometimes on the neutering?  CT NEVER NEUTERS!

ctsignguy

The only neutered CT I-shields i ever saw were those used in and around construction zones...made by private contractors.

all STC-issued I-shields are still proudly emblazoned with 'CONNECTICUT'

Here's a neutering that pisses me off - COUNTY SHIELDS in NJ.  Those should be inviolate!

I've looked on ebay but can find any state route signs from Ohio.  I actually have an OH-151 sign, but I would love an OH-7 sign.  I grew up in Steubenville which 7 goes through.  In that same way, I would love a US 22 sign.  Others I would like are NC-12, I-64, I-68, I-70.

Never seen any of those on ebay.  Anyone have any of these?

I have these in my personal inventory...



and a neutered US shield



You did miss an old embossed Ohio 17 on ebay that i stole for only 90....therwe is an embossed Ohio 96 up now, but the opening bid is $500 (no takers so far)

Keep looking for square Ohios on eBay...they are not common, but aside from one exception, can usually be had fairly cheaply

I'd also like to see if anyone has any New York route markers (US, interstate, and state markers).


I have a steel NY 17 marker. It's not really for sale, but I might part with it for the right price.

Any NY experts have any idea how old it is?  I've never even been to NY.


Ian

I dont think it is too old. If it were old enough, it would have NY written on the top. That is a NICE sign BTW. I'd like to make a deal if you are gonna part with it  ;-).

I know that you want a sign that was posted in the field, but Garden State Highway Products supplies signs for NJ roads, and you can at least buy a mint shield for $50. I bought a Garden State Parkway trailblazer from them last year (which looks great), and they likely sell NJ Turnpike trailblazers too. Contact Joe Mac at their web site if you are interested.

Ian

Yea, I've ordered from them before. I have a 24"x24" New York Thruway shield from them. I also got a tour of the place  :-P!! Though I still would like a used Thruway shield  :sombrero:.

ComputerGuy > Picked up a Washington US 101 cutout yesterday along with a LA I-12......future pickups will include Washington I-5 and Wash 530 shields

PennDOTFan > Yes, i got your PM....let me answer that for you when i get back from my East Coast trip....at that point, i will be better able to answer your queries with proper information rather than guesses...

Wow...that is beat up...here's a graphic version of that shield (Based on Wikipedia counterpart):



Where did you get it?

US71

My wish list is for a 30's-style cut-out for US 71 plus AR 45 or 68... possibly a MO 13 or 37. Also a 50's cut-out of an AR or MO shield.

I have a 4 ft long yellow/black hazard (stripe) sign I'm willing to sell if anyone is interested.
