State-named interstate shields

[formulanone]

Roadgeeks: Vermont state-named shields, please.
Also roadgeeks: "...not like that!"

To be fair, it's on the New Hampshire side of Route 9, and they also have forgotten how to place the state name.

...I don't hate it?

This is a picture I took of a Virginia named TO I-64 sign in Charlottesville from exactly a year ago:

Charlottesville has several state named shields still left around.

I find it almost hilarious that they replaced the old interstate shields with an almost exact replica, right down to the specs! Either way I'm glad the state names remain.

I noticed this relatively new Pennsylvania I-84 shield while on vacation this year: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.3404511,-75.2986908,3a,19.8y,93.96h,90.56t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sYfaw3RGI8aaFUU_-x05NAw!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3DYfaw3RGI8aaFUU_-x05NAw%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D93.95838041835438%26pitch%3D-0.5579456599579231%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu
Per GSV it was installed sometime between late 2019 and late 2021.

This in PA is the first I've seen on a BGS.

I found a state named I-95 shield in Florida today. Just after the first exit in Florida in Yulee. Don't know of many examples on mainlines in Florida.

They're just trying to keep warm.

Not a great example, but I found this in East Terre Haute along Old National Road:



Looks like David Backlin (RIP) found it first

Found this pair of state-named I-275 shields in Tampa, FL, last month, at the interchange just north of the I-4 interchange:

I have now seen, in person, an example of a state-named Interstate shield in every state directly adjacent to Alabama (including Alabama itself, of course) except Tennessee. I've also seen state-named Interstate shields in Pennsylvania, Montana, California, South Carolina, Kentucky, Indiana, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, IIRC.
