    This is an 8" x 8" square. It is about 1" thick. It has red marbles. I am looking for some history on what this was used for and when. My dad picked it up a flea market.

      I have seen signs similar to this posted at the median when a road becomes divided (i.e., where the median begins).

      Here's an example of what I mean...I think your sign was for the same purpose as these. Photo From Rahway, NJ in 1940:
