I just got an old embossed route marker that is South Carolina US 521 but it is clearly recycled from a "15A" shield.

anyone know which years US 15A was in existence?  Would be neat to try to date this sign.

Do you think it's your type? Or are you its type?  :spin:


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

With the 521 and 15A, I think he has a one-sign "multiplex" on his mind.

http://www.us-highways.com/altus.htm says 1935-57, but http://www.angelfire.com/sc3/scroads/us15.html has some differing details.

I tried dating a sign once, but it had a wooden personality.

I accept and respect your identity as long as it's not dumb shit like "identifying as a vaccinated attack helicopter".

Did it put up a shield? Was the writing on the wall?
