Vintage Embossed Tin "Keep Off The Grass" Yard Sign

Embossed steel sign with raised green block lettering reading "KEEP OFF THE GRASS," finished in a light gray field with dark green lettering and border. The reverse shows the lettering in relief, emphasizing its pressed-metal construction. Mounting holes are present at the corners and along the centerline, indicating intended outdoor use on posts, fences, or railings where visibility and durability were essential. Signs like this were widely used in parks, school grounds, municipal buildings, and institutional campuses during the mid-20th century. Designed to be easily readable at a distance and resilient to weather, they reflect a period when public signage favored clarity, permanence, and straightforward authority over decorative flourish. The restrained color palette and heavy gauge metal give it a distinctly utilitarian character well-suited to industrial or architectural display today. Shows minor rust along the edges and in areas of the raised lettering, along with light surface wear consistent with age and outdoor use. Structurally sound and displays well. 12" W x 2.75" H MM - 4633 - 083123 MM - 122225 For information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms & Conditions page here.
