This online photo gallery shows some of Ontario's earlier highway signs dating from the 1920s through the 1970s. All of these signs are from my personal collection, unless specifically noted otherwise. Old Ontario highway signs do not generally have a year or date code on them, but their age can be estimated based on slight differences in the reflective properties of the signs and minor design changes. I have estimated the age of each of my signs in the photo description. If you have any photographs of older Provincial Highway or King's Highway signs, I would be happy to add them to the photo gallery. You will be credited as the photographer or contributor.
