Arizona US 66 and 89 guide sign. Up for sale today is this Arizona US 66, 89, and 89 Alternate guide sign. Made to the exact 1930s state standard as used on the Mother Road and elsewhere in the state. this exact sign stood on the west side of Flagstaff at the split between US highway 89A - an old mountain road to Jerome and Oak Creek Canyon - and route 66/89, a more modern route that was a longer but far less intense drive to Prescott. The original sign survived until 1961 when it was destroyed in a fire.Route 66 needs no introduction - it\'s been the historic Mother Road, from John Steinbeck to Bobby Troup, and has arguably become even more famous since its formal decommissioning between 1964 and 1985. 66 has become the ultimate lost highway, the road trip that everyone takes... \"Get your kicks, on route 66!\" - Bobby TroupThis is a non-reflective sign, printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It is 20 by 15 inches and weighs about 7 pounds 10 ounces. The original of this sign, as may be seen in the historic photo, was about 6 feet tall. Here is your chance to own a very nice remake without chancing a hernia. (if you would like a different size version, please see my other sales.)This is a high quality, durable sign made of heavy steel. 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! \"Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino...\" - Bobby Troup 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. \"Life doesn\'t happen along the interstates. It\'s against the law.\" - Charles Kuralt Figure about 9 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833. Thank you for your purchase!
