On my recent sojourn to Marshalltown, I was able to collect a few more signs for the TOWN SIGN PROJECT.

Mackey, Iowa

Story City, Iowa

Randall, Iowa

Jewell, Iowa

Radcliffe, Iowa

Garden City, Iowa

Gilbert, Iowa (Side 1)

Gilbert, Iowa (Side 2)

Most towns have multiple town signs. I only pick one for the project. For example, Story City has a couple nice, brand new looking signs. BORING! I almost fell asleep looking at them and I was driving at the time. I’m sure I’m not able to find all of the town signs in the towns I’m tooling through. My preference is old decrepit signs like the Garden City sign.

I should point out that Mackey isn’t really even a town any longer, but somebody put up a sign to mark where it used to be. I’m not above photographing town signs for towns that don’t exist any longer. I’m looking forward to my dance with the Zook Spur sign at some point in the near future.

I hope to more than double the current number in the next month or so.

NOTE: The Gilbert sign was taken on a different road trip.
