How Can You Lose A Road Sign?
As a collector of old road sign photos, I travel around with the camera and decided to go to the A22 after a couple of years for an unusual no parking sign I noted as being on the short stretch between East Grinstead and Forest Row, probably on the east side and partly covered in leaves. It looks like a road name and remember it being on a layby/junction. It's a couple of miles long, and having spent two evenings on Google walking it backwards and forwards, including the earlier view, I am stumped. I hardly expect many people to live there to check, but I don't think I got the road mixed up (very few N-S A roads that way to do so), it's Sussex and not beyond Forest Row so where has it gone? No rewards for the finder except the satisfaction and seeing the only photo of it on the internet when I go and get one.

And had it been removed it should still appear in streetview either currently or in their archives?
I can only conclude that your search has been thorough and that you original siting was mistaken. Not that stretch of road at all.

This one, near where we used to live 'vanished' quite often, think it became a bit of a collectors item

Ham Sandwich is actually in the I Spy book from the 60s and very famous. I could call the council but firstly they don't know all the old signs on their patch, and secondly if you tell them there's a pre 1964 around most are bound to remove them. It has to be on Streetview somewhere and there's no other A road for miles, and I made a note of the general location elsewhere at the time in case someone could get a photo to see it properly so unlikely to have got mixed up but never know. Maybe someone here lives near East Grinstead, it has happened with other signs I needed in the past.

Not what you are looking for, but I love this genuine road name in Bristol
