Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5 Truckers - you are not down yet sign. Up for sale today is this truck warning sign from interstate 70 in Colorado. After an incident in 1989 when an eastbound truck lost its brakes (and destruction ensued), the state of Colorado came up with two innovative warning signs and posted them on the freeway. This is the second one, and it alerts the operator to one and a half more miles of steep grades and sharp curves. After the installation of the two signs, the number of runaway trucks has diminished to about half of the previous level. An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport. Also, there is only one example, and the state police know generally where it should be (not in your garage). So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing legal trouble - or a hernia. The sign is printed on steel, and is 24 by 6 inches - it is resized from the original freeway-size sign for more wieldy indoor display. It weighs 3 pounds, 11 ounces. It 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! Would you like a number not seen here? Or perhaps a different style? 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.
