This good looking street sign carries greater importance than just the Negro Southern League Baseball Museum it points the way to, as the museum is located in Birmingham, Alabama - the epicenter of the Civil Rights Movement. Birmingham was one of the most racially divided cities in America in the early 1960s, and thus became ground zero for the movement started in large part by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, which ultimately led to the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The sheet metal sign shows nice wear from use with neat graphics.
