Yosemite trail signage

Metal signs with stencil typography used throughout Yosmite National Park on trails. "Lee Buzzini was a well-known sign maker during his career at the park. In the mid-1950s, concern arose around the paint smell on the classic trail signs and its potential to attract bears, so Buzzini and welder Bill Kirk put their heads together and created new signs from sheet metal with torched letters. The signs—weathered and rusted from many decades but keeping an almost “historic” charm—can still be seen all over the park at trailheads and along popular hikes." https://www.nps.gov/yose/blogs/yosemite-archives-digitization-project-the-significance-of-signs.htm
