US highway 666 route marker.Up for sale today is this US highway 666 route sign. Made to the 1957 standard of California\'s three-digit US Route shields, that was adopted as a federal standard in 1961. US 666 covered all four of the Four Corners states, being extended from Colorado and New Mexico into Utah and Arizona over the years. in 2003, the number was changed to 491 because superstitious folks responded unfavorably to the number, calling it the Devil\'s Highway.This sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 2 pounds, 15 ounces, and is 12.6 by 10.8 inches - a faithful rescaling of the original 21x18, 28x24, and 42x36 sizes specified in the signage manual. It is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors. (If you would like a different size version, please ask as I can certainly make one!)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 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. Figure about 5 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833.
