Description from the seller

Aluminum sheet metal, original military warning signs from the vicinity of US bases in Germany, second half of the 20th century.
Sign printed with texts in German and English: "Military Area of ​​the US Forces", each prohibiting photography, filming, and entry without permission.
In typical used condition with age-related wear.
These original warning signs date from the Cold War era and vividly document the presence of US forces on German soil. Such signs were posted at military restricted areas and entrances to barracks or security zones, serving both as a deterrent and as legal safeguards. The bilingual design reflects the close security policy ties between the Federal Republic of Germany and the USA within the framework of NATO. Today, these signs are considered authentic historical artifacts of the post-war period and are highly sought-after collector's items of military memorabilia.
Dimensions: 100 x 50 cm
