Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png)

This is a one of a kind sign pulled from a sidewalk in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Yes, it was an actual sign that the department of transportation put out. The sign has the same printing on both sides. It states simply: "Danger: Idiots Driving on Sidewalk Have Broken This Utility Cover. Watch Your Step". It is a very funny sign, very eclectic and definitely original. It is made from a stiff cardboard with the text of the sign it looks like printed on. The corners do have a few pushpin holes in it and it has colored slightly with age but otherwise in fine condition. Not sure if I want to let go of this or not, but would just like to know a ballpark figure if anyone has one. Sign measures about 24" long by 18" wide.
