A brief history of the M*A*S*H signpost.
Instantly recognizable to millions of viewers of the television series M*A*S*H (CBS, 1972-83), this is possibly the most famous signpost of all time. During the series’ run, three of these signs saw screen time.
One burned in a fire on the set, one (main image) was donated to the Smithsonian and a third was auctioned off to charity. Today, if you make the trek through California’s Malibu Creek State Park to the original set location, you will find a replica (see below) standing in the spot where the original handpainted signpost once stood.
