Street signs for dioramas - please help!

[HamilkarBarkas]

Hi guys!
I intend to build a diorama of the operation "Weserübung", the occupation of Norway by the Wehrmacht in April 1940. My diorama won´t have that many features, so i really want to add a Norwegian street sign that fits the scene, i´d love to see a road sign with "Lillehammer", "Kvam" or "Oslo". I searched through the web but i could not find something suiting i could print on the computer and use it. Maybe you guys have an idea what i could do, maybe someone has one of those Verlinden street sign sets for Norway (but i don´t think such a set exists, they have them for a lot of countries but i haven´t seen one for Norway yet!).
Thank you in advance!

Hi Hamilkar
Although I have not found street signs from Operation Weserübung. But maybe this picture will help.
It shows two soldiers during install of self-made street signs...

Not sure about road signs, but a nice vintage poster might be easier to find to stick on a wall...eg nice ones on this page

@Schoof
i think i have this set somewhere, i used a couple of them already but especially the distance notes might be helpful on a selfmade sign, thank you for bringing that back into my mind!

@Dunhill
thats an amazing picture, it shows that street signs were sometimes not the official ones but improvised ones from the army. this information might be useful.

@Rob
a poster is not perfect for my dio as there are no wall where i could stick it to, but anyway, its a very interesting vintage poster. thank you for sharing this!

I think you can make the signs as you like...
City and street signs were often removed to make an orientation harder for the enemy

Michael,

You could just make your own signs on the computer and print them on decal paper. Instant decals!
