Up for sale today is this California state route 4 sign. Made to the exact standards as used between 1934 and 1940 along this historic highway.
Highway 4 is one of the major crossings of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California, heading out of the Bay Area at Martinez into the foothills across Ebbetts Pass where it meets highway 89 around Markleeville and the Carson River.
An original of these, complete with the diamond logo of the California State Automobile Association would cost many thousands of dollars if it ever came to the market.
The sign is 5 1/4 by 17 inches, and weighs four pounds and two ounces. This is a high quality, heavy steel sign. Accept no imitations that selling may be one-third this price, but are one-tenth the quality. No cheap tin to be found here, with the wrong fonts, layouts, size, shape, or any other manner of embarrassing imperfection. This one will make even the most discerning collector stick their nose into the sign, as it looks that good from that close!
Please do see my other auctions for quality California US and state route markers!
Would you like a number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? I can of course make these signs with any route number of your choice, and not just this style, but others with the reflectors, the embossed style that other states used, and even the classic mileage, direction, and city limit guide signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
