Mobile trailer sign

I want to mount a sign to
A small 48in trailer frame to just pull it from one spot to another to let it sit for advertising. Any suggestions how to make a frame fixed to the trailer?

Probably want to double check that the city you're in allows that. We had a guy buy a retired watchfire demo truck, thinking he could just park it and advertise, the city didn't like that idea.
That being said, and depending on the size of signage, you'll want to either sand bag it down or add some outriggers, that trailer doesn't weigh very much to begin with. You'll probably also want a removable tongue, to deter theft.

I like making signs
My son did this with his business signs I made for him and set it in his Dads goat pasture by the road. I'll ask him how he attached it. We did 2- 4'x8' ACM. Worked out really well. Nobody has said anything yet about needing a permit, etc.

Update:
He made a 2x4 frame and screwed to the bottom then added some supports. The trailer has some wood braces so it won't blow over. 2x4's and screws, that's it LOL redneck last minute rigging
