Established around 1210 AD, County Limerick was once the fulcrum point for transatlantic air traffic between Europe and America for flying boats in the 1930s and early 1940s.

This hand crafted replica road sign, is based on the original An Roinn Iompair (Department of Transport) specifications, with raised black text on a white background, and using a faithful homage to the original ‘Irish Transport Heavy’ Font.

These ‘Fingerpost’ Road Signs depicted the original Irish spelling above the English equivalence, and were widespread before the 1970s, and can still be seen today in many rural areas of the Republic of Ireland.

  • One quarter sized Irish Road Sign Replica, approx. 14 by 5 inches.
  • Handmade by us! - Celt Wares.
  • Sawtooth Picture Hanger and Surface Guard Protection Bumpers pre-mounted on rear of sign.
