 So what is it about "Maine" signs that makes them special?
It's no secret that Maine offers a harsh environment that is a challenge to anything that is out in the weather. So we take care to produce signs that have the best chance of standing up to the dampness, cold and sun. Fighting the elements starts with finding and using the highest quality materials. Then it's taking the time in preparation and actual production to make sure things are done right; the wood is dry, the edges are taken care of, the paint goes on at the right temperature, etc. |
Though many of our signs are carved, the designs can work quite well in two dimensions also. This sign is an example of a flat-painted signboard. |

This sign's simple layout is easy to read and the shape serves to tie the sign visually to the building (behind it). |
