These posts were used to mark the Lincoln Highway in the early part of the century.

Some still exist, either original or recreations. Other markings included painting telephone poles and the occasional sign.

These banners are appearing on the streets of many Lincoln Highway towns.

I have also seen these in Plainfield and Rochelle IL, as well as in Iowa and Nebraska.

The Lincoln Highway Association is active in recreating the Lincoln Highway, argueably the most famous named trail from the early 20th century. US-30 took over a great portion of the Lincoln Highway in the 1920's, including most of Illinois. In the 1930's US-30 was moved to a new road south of the original one, and the Lincoln Highway became Alternate US-30 after a stint as US-330. In the 1970's it became IL-38.

Near Franklin Grove IL is a pole with the Lincoln Highway banner painted on a telephone pole just like they were originally.
