(above) Cranford has dedicated streets to the memory of nine of the fifteen WWI heroes that left Cranford, never to return home again. This style street sign was designed and fired by hand by the Mueller Mosaic Company of Trenton, a famous American ceramic tile manufacturer of the era. Originally in 1929, 200 of these types of signs were installed, today only 77 remain. The gold stars on a blue background were added later with numbers that represented the number of streets dedicated to our Hometown Heroes. We can find no relation to the order of the numbers. As the original signs were damaged they were replaced by a similar cement sign with vinyl letters.
