Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5New York City Manhattan W 52/Ave. of the Americas sign Up for sale today is this Manhattan, New York W 52 Street sign, which faces the Avenue of the Americas (or 6th Avenue). The sign is made to the 1910s specification used by the city to designate this famous street in Manhattan, right in the heart of New York’s jazz scene, with the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Radio Center Music Hall on either side of it. This is the last style of porcelain sign before retroreflective signage, unfortunately not in the distinct shape any longer, were introduced in 1950s. This particular intersection is home to a variety of businesses in Manhattan, most notably its jazz clubs. I can of course make any street, any block number, found anywhere in the Big Apple, and everywhere else too! This sign is double-sided. each side features a complementary legend: one side with the mounting holes on the left, the other side with the mounting holes on the right, so that they point in the same direction on the physical sign. This sign is flat printed on steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. The sign is the original size of 22 by 12 inches, and weighs about 5 pounds, 4 ounces. This is a high quality, heavy steel, non-reflective remake, very much reminiscent of the classic porcelain appearance of the original signs – perfect for both indoor and outdoor display. 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 the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. Figure about 8 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833.
