Hi folks!
My name is Sibelle and I'm pretty interested in highway/road signs. I live just outside of Lowell, MA, and I've traveled from here as far south as DC and as far north as New Brunswick.  Joined mostly to learn about fonts used on these signs (especially old MA fonts!) and to learn more in general about highway facts!
Thanks for adding me!

It's all fun & games until someone summons Cthulhu and brings about the end of the world.

I also collect traffic lights, road signs, fans, and railroad crossing equipment.

Welcome from Methuen, MA! You seem to be the second-closest person to me on this forum (MVHighways, currently inactive, lives in Dracut).
Clinched, minus I-93 (I'm missing a few miles and my file is incorrect)

Traveled, plus US 13, 44, and 50, and several state routes

I will be in Burlington VT for the eclipse.

Welcome from far away Winnipeg!

There are a few font experts here. I just know the difference between Helvetica, Highway Gothic, and Clearview mainly  :-D

Welcome from Kansas.  Yes, there are those on here who know a lot more than I do about road sign fonts.  You've come to the right place.
Keep right except to pass.  Yes.  You.
Visit scenic Orleans County, NY!
Male pronouns, please.

Indeed.  They don't post often, but there's both sammi and MikeTheActuary who are pretty knowledgeable with sign fonts.

Welcome from Georgia! It is interesting to know that you, along with 1 and possibly a few others, live along the MA/NH Border. I have been to Boston and Martha's Vineyard, but I would love to explore elsewhere in New England, including your neck of the woods.
Now alternating between different highway shields for my avatar - my previous highway shield avatar for the last few years was US 76.
