Some new goodies

I had seen old photos of signs like this here on AARoads, but not in the flesh...so i couldnt pass these up...

this one was all beaten up, but still displayable


One of what can be called the TV Screen Vermonts from the 1960s-70s (pre-circle)


A lovely example of 'A' fonts


And finally, two signs i had some 20 years ago, and was forced to sell off...well, they came back home!

16x16 embossed steel, beaded glass


15x15 embossed...and a golly-gee lame-o restoration i did back in 1991.....(yes, it was the original number underneath...)


and this beaut, courtesy of DangerMoose


(Ok, Jake, add what you need to the Gallery!)

neato!  glad you picked up that 169.  It is a Kansas.

I need to get on that Tennessee triplet I keep threatening you with ...

This is probably a 9, as there doesn't seem to have been a VT 6.

I think it is labeled "9" on the back, if that is the one which ScottB had.

May I ask how much the CT wooden signs went for? Never seen anything like them except the Tennessee signs from the 20s, and those weren't wooden.
