Original New York City Street Sign (Circa 1920s)

Item Details

Description

This is an original NYC Street Sign, originally located in Eastern Manhattan on the corner of East 88th Street and East End avenue, overlooking the East River. This is a one-of-a-kind collector’s item, as these “blue-bell” porcelain street signs have long since been replaced with the green signage seen on the streets today. An absolute must have for any NYC enthusiast.
