Google Maps doesn't have a good shot of this (I nabbed a portrait myself while I was driving by from out of the desert), but a nice cats-eye button copy sign sitting unmolested on a side street.

I love this little sign. I don't frequent the area, but it seems to be effective at keeping traffic moving.

It looks like the other three directions have STOP signs? That works.

^^^^

I guess it's OK, since it appears to be a relatively quiet corner, but generally a 3-way stop, where one direction does not stop at all, can be quite confusing for traffic.  The situation is probably a concession to the nearby railroad crossing, so that cars won't stop on the tracks.

I'm intrigued that they used a custom arrow graphic (which appears to favor the left turn) instead of just a standard three-headed lane assignment arrow. But a nice little sign given the context.

I've seen signs like this. I believe the last one I saw was in Brooklyn or Queens back in the early 2000's but it was a warning sign (yellow on black) and without the words. Nice find!

Still hanging on in Baraboo!

That is lovely. Looks like a crypt, though!

Can't find an exact source, but they seem like 1920s vintage. Might be the oldest posted route signs still in place, although the denoted routes have moved slightly (WI 33 is still along the route and "WIS 12" is now a US 12 Business route.) It looks like street names are on the bottom but I can't read them too well, and the L and R denote directions.
