As is Maryland's wont, MD 273 is located near MD 272, 274, 275, and 276, as well as other routes close in number. As is not Maryland's wont, the free-standing shield above lacks the state name in the blank space. All photos on this page are eastbound.


More shields without the state name; those are only supposed to appear when the shields are mounted on larger signs.


The oldest white sign I've yet passed in the state, with a more prominent state seal and bolder letters than the newer ones.


Truck MD 274 is synonymous with MD 272. The first photo demonstrates a state-name I-95 shield, and the second photo demonstrates Maryland's alternate style of junction signage (as in, cheaping out on the second shield). Usually, Maryland would produce one-piece black-background signs with shields mounted/depicted on them.


Newer LWS, but on the wrong side of the road to get a good photo.
