Akron exit sign.
Up for sale today is this Ohio freeway guide sign for I-76 east from the Ohio Turnpike, serving the city of Akron. Made to the exact 2023 federal standards, as used by the state of Ohio on its freeways.
An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport; many still enjoy their active service on the highways. The original of this sign is also over 15 feet wide, so we've scaled it down for more wieldy display. Here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing legal trouble... or a hernia.
The sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 7 lb. 6 oz., and is 24 by 12 inches. If you would like a different size, please do not hesitate to inquire.
This is a high quality, heavy steel, non-reflective sign — perfect for indoor or outdoor display. Accept no imitations that 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!
I can of course make these signs with any destinations of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic mileage, direction, and city limit guide signs from bygone eras. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A.
Figure about 9 lb. 6 oz. for shipping, packed carefully and mailed from zip code 61833. Our signs are only printed when you buy them. Allow about 10 business days for manufacturing, in addition to the usual delivery time.
The watermark and bear logo in the design preview will not appear on the actual sign. We have begun adding a watermark because we have had problems with other companies copying our artwork to make lesser-quality imitations. You will only get this high level of quality in design and materials from Signs by Jake.
