A reply
I will be selling off some of my '99-'02 L-M memorablia shortly.
No road signs but souveneir and official ACO t-shirts and Dunlop coverals issued to me when I marshalled there those years.
PM for details.

Well, those signs either have to be fakes or they are stolen, can't believe the local LM Council would have given/sold them to a Brit!

A quick look on the web shows that "commercial" grade alluminium signs of a larger size than that can be bought for about £150 each, so it shouldn't be too hard to find someone to make a pair.

I think Grant was right though - you might be able to source some, with difficulty, but making a set wouldn't be that hard, surely? And of course we're assuming these are genuine, with no provenance of any kind....

But the big question is why, what the hell are you going to do with them, not exactly the sort of things you put up in the living room and investing large sums of money for them and then putting them on the garage wall? I would prefer some decent posters.

Not that I would bother with them but I can think of many better things to do with £1070!
