This metal airplane sign is of the B-17 Flying Fortress Aircraft, Special Delivery. The Boeing B-17 airplanes were developed in 1930s and flew as part of the USAAC. The Special Delivery B-17 was part of the 359th Bomb Squadron.
The image of the B-17 airplane is handsomely displayed on heavy gauge steel sign that is made in America. There are several steps to produce the exceptionally detailed airplane sign. The process begins with a powder coating applied to the steel plate that is baked. This gives the sign its vibrant colors and then a satin finish provides a smooth and sturdy surface. Finally rivets are drilled into the metal to make the sign easy to hang.
