Pardon the blurriness of the picture, I wasn't expecting to be taking pictures on this stretch of road. I believe this to be the first known Clearview sign in Montana on I-90 in Billings. Pretty shitty job.

Sure that wasn't done freehand?

that's not Clearview.  those are all Highway Gothic Series D glyphs, just some stretched and some compressed.  someone had way too much fun fucking around with that sign.

Obviously so. I mean, I could care less what typeface the sign is in, 'cause I really don't pay particular attention to what they look like. Looks don't mean anything unless I know what purpose it serves. In this case, this sign is okay, but a font change may fix this.
Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!
