Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5 Dallas-Fort Worth Turnpike sign. Up for sale today is this Dallas-Fort Worth Turnpike highway sign. Made to the exact 1957 standard from when the turnpike was originally designated. The segment was an operational toll road until 1977, when it became part of interstate 20, then 30. It is also the only direct connection between downtown Dallas and downtown Fort Worth. There are, as far as anyone knows, no surviving examples left in the field. The sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 2 pounds, 9 ounces. It has been rescaled from the original 24 by 22 1/2 and 36 by 33 3/4 inch signs down to 12 by 11 1/4 inches. it is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors. (if you would like a larger size version, please ask as I can certainly make one!) This is a high quality, heavy steel sign. 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 route number 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. "Life doesn't happen along the interstates.
