Source for magnetic changeable letter sign?

[Jillbeans]

There are two of these on my road but nobody seems to know where they came from.
Looks like your standard changeable letter sign from Sam's Club, but is non-illuminated and the sign surface is a perforated metal. Magnetic letters (looks like Serpentine on white magnetic) adhere to this thing. The background metal can be white or yellow. Framed in in black metal poles.
Any info?

Love....Jill

Can't say I've run across a source in all my years. I did make a set once for a client when I first bought my router table. But that's the only time I had a need for them.

I should clarify this by saying that the sign is for exterior use, just like the flashing arrow signs but without the flashing arrow.
Sits on the ground.
I need to source the whole thing not just the magnetic alphabet.
I will try to get a pic in between working my real job, babysitting, and cranking out signs.
Thanks.

Jill Did you find these or did you get a picture?

 

[Jillbeans]

It's not either of those. I promise I will get a pic by tomorrow.
I've been busier than a cat trying to cover **** on a marble floor.
Thanks guys!

The best type of magnetic sign is the patented Magnetsign. However they do not sell them.

Thanks. I was hoping for a reply from Signage since he keeps pestering me to post a pic.

I am not a fabricator, and these things look pre-fabbed.
Someone somewhere has to be selling them.
