Owing to their permanance, size, and often historic significance,
the denominational sign should always have a decidedly decorous tone.
That means proper font selection for the text, well chosen field and trim colors,
substantial looking support, and a complimentary planting scheme.

This monumental assemblage was designed and fabricated by me in 1994.
The engraved sign, inlaid with 23k gold leaf, has a sculpted mahogany mitre and crest.
The center section is on hinge pins and is removable by crane. The 6x6 cedar support posts
are clad with redwood and anchored below the surface to a continuous grade beam.
The fencing was fabricatedwith the help of one experienced carpenter/painter,
one blacksmith and one metal fabrication shop. However, it took four men to install safely !
