San Francisco Alemany Boulevard sign. Up for sale today is this Alemany Boulevard, 2400 block sign. The sign is made to the 1946 specification used by the city of San Francisco. Signs in this style were still being posted until 1965, and remained in service for several years thereafter. An original of these is very rare to find scrapped. Most of them vanished long ago, when they were replaced with the more modern issues. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without paying a small fortune on the collector’s market. I can make any street name sign, from San Francisco or any other city! Ask about your favorite street! The sign is 20 by 7 inches, and weighs about 2 lb. This is a high quality, heavy steel remake, printed on one side for economical display against a wall or other flat surface. It is a non-reflective sign, making it ideal for ordinary display, inside or out. 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! Would you like a street name or block number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? I can of course make these signs with any street name of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic mileage, direction, and route shield signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Figure about 4 lb. 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.
