Abstract From the Canadian patent

A mounting bracket for mounting an offset sign (46) to a post (50) has a plate (12) for rivetting to a T-shaped reinforcing element (44) along the top or bottom of the sign. The bracket has two transverse channels (14,28). One channel (14) has internal ribs (23,24) defining a slot (27) to receive the head (34) of a bolt (32), the shank 33 of which then projects from the channel for bolting it to the post (50). An alternative method of mounting is to pass a strap around the post and through the channel (28). The bracket can accommodate round posts by cutting a shallow V profile (58) in the walls at the mouth of the channel (14).
