What is really unusual here is the city that is further away is first on the sign.

Since nobody has answered in three days, here's the next:


The 96 is taken from this picture of the Madrid-Valencia road at the beginning of the XX century.
The house where the sign is attached is home of one peón caminero, which were men who, in the past century, lived in houses like that and their job was to keep clean and roadworthy their stretch of road. Time flies!

I'm surprised I don't have a picture of the "New York City 100" distance sign on the southbound Thruway, well, 100 miles north of NYC.  Hopefully someone else does.
