Small state, big first. This Welcome to Delaware sign pairs "Welcome to Delaware" with "The First State" in white capitals on a deep green panel inside a fine white keyline, styled after an American border greeting. The wording is fixed exactly as pictured.
Delaware earned its nickname on 7 December 1787, when it became the first state to ratify the US Constitution. It is a neat present for someone who has lived in Wilmington or worked in Dover, the state capital, for families who spent summers on the boardwalk at Rehoboth Beach, and for anyone who likes a bit of history behind the things on their walls.
The A6 slips onto a bookshelf between travel guides; the A4 or A3 can hold a hallway wall by itself. Clean has the sharp look of a newly erected sign. Rusted prints a weathered, rust-effect finish rather than real corrosion. Please note this is a decorative reproduction, not an official highway sign and not a reclaimed one.
- Sizes: A6 - 10.5 x 14.8 cm, A5 - 21 x 14.8 cm, A4 - 28.3 x 19.7 cm or A3 - 42 x 30.5 cm, each in a Clean or Rusted style
Delaware shares the Delmarva Peninsula with Maryland, borders Pennsylvania to the north and looks across the Delaware River and Bay to New Jersey. Find the rest in our US state welcome signs.
