Wanted: State Welcome Signs

[drswift]

During my two month ride around the US I tried to take pics of "Welcome to.." signs for all the state borders.

Three I could not get were:
Maryland, Maine, and Washington (state - I crossed 3 borders with no luck).

I'm looking for nice JPEGs (ideally 2 megapixel shots) of just the signs.

Appreciate any help.

Here's Washington

Not quite what you wanted.

Bob:
That's the exact sign, only just a straight-on shot of moslty sign and no folks. Thanks for the thought.

From a trip to the RA rally at Barber Motorsports in Birmingham with a friend from Germany. Unfortunately, none of the signs you need are in there...

I didn't fully read your post - didn't realize you were only looking for three. Well at least MD is here.

Show off!

Wait until he starts breaking out the photos from his Euro trips.

Boy, did I open a can of worms, or what?

Terence:
Don't know if the sign is high enough resolution to crop, but here's the "no frills" type shots I'm trying to collect. If yours would work please email to me or send me a link to your photo site.

They're hidden behind that hill.
