I have another signpost reproduction to share, this one built by artist and military veteran SM (who served in the Korean DMZ from 1970-1972). As withe every reproduction, it is an impressive piece of work. Here it is:

I have added a picture to my Prop Spotlight: The Signpost page. SM built the signpost for a Siena Heights University (located in Adrian, Michigan) Student Veterans M*A*S*H-themed fundraiser to be held this Saturday (April 14th). Below is a flyer for the fundraiser:

I received an e-mail the other day from Greg, a M*A*S*H fan who wants to build a recreation of the famous signpost. He’s looking for dimensions of the signs themselves that he can use and I’m hopeful that someone can help him out. Several other fans have made their own signposts in the past (you can see examples here) so maybe one day someone will put together instructions.

Please e-mail me or leave a comment if you can help.

The very talented Steven, who was kind enough to send me pictures of the full size replica of the signpost he built, e-mailed me with photographs of a miniature version he has sitting on his desk. I’ve added it to Prop Spotlight: The Signpost. Here’s a close-up of the base:

Joe sent me an e-mail containing pictures of a signpost he built out of Popsicle sticks. It’s pretty impressive:

Check out Prop Spotlight: The Signpost for another picture and for pictures of three other signposts built by fans of M*A*S*H.

Last week a young M*A*S*H fan named Steven e-mailed me with pictures of the signpost he built over the course of three months. It’s quite impressive. I’ve updated Prop Spotlight: The Signpost with a large picture and Steven’s description of how he put it together. I wonder how many other replicas of the signpost are situated in living rooms and bed rooms and porches and front lawns around the world. Personally, I think the hardest part must be the lettering on the individual signs.
