Description: To maximize the chances your package will arrive before Christmas, please order BEFORE December 5 Help Prevent Fires sign. Up for sale today is this Help Prevent Fires sign from the California Board of Forestry. The Board of Forestry in California was formed in 1905. The sign is made to the approximately 1913 specification of the California State Auto Association, with the logo at the bottom (as well as the association name at the sides) and with sharp corners. Later generations changed to rounded corners for safety, in case an unexpected kinetic event caused the darn thing to come flying through the windshield. The sign is 11 inches on a side (approximately 17 1/2 inches across the long axis, and 13 3/4 up and down the short axis), and weighs 3 pounds, 3 ounces. It has been faithfully rescaled from the original 29 by 23 for more wieldy display. The original of these signs exists in a private collection and is not going anywhere. This is a high quality, heavy steel remake that has the same high gloss and is indistinguishable from the original early 1910s porcelain 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 verbiage 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 5 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833. Thank you for your purchase!
