Other Information

This sign is very difficult to see especially when there is foliage. Photo 9 is a poor view of the sign in Oct. 2007 hwere the sign is barely visible. The July 2023 Google street view shows that the barn is not visible at all. It is assumed that the sign remains; however, the degree it has faded is unknown.

Where to find it

Along the south side of George Washington Hwy. (US-50) west of WV-24 intersection by about 1.0 mile. The barn is on the left side of the highway headed west and is almost directly across from the Aurora Town sign. The Mail Pouch sign faces west. One end. Black background.
