New York City's Walk / Don't Walk Signs For Your Home

These typical New York Walk/Don't Walk signs are being hawked by UK deliver operation Trainspotters. Presumably they'll be snapped up by Londoners unfortunate to increase a small city courage to their sanitized, squeaky-clean lofts situated in shuttered, converted schools.

These 6.8Kg (15-pound) monsters were built to tarry in NYC, so they're roughly unbreakable, assembled from throw aluminum and gradual glass. Surplus units have turn existing given 1999, according to Trainspotters, when the city proposed to reinstate them with versions using black not words, that were of march disdainful to any person who can't read English.

Trainspotters has propitious the lamps with a 3-meter (ten-foot) yellow connective tissue and inline switch, and new electronics inside creates them "flash at timed intervals," either it's time to travel or not.

The cost to re-purchase this iconic bit of America from the Imperialist English dogs? 925 ($1,500), in addition to shipping back to the colonies.
