My dear friend, neighbor and Wenonah historian extraudinaire, Marjorie Lentz , shared with me the sign's historical beginnings...
When automobiles became more popular in Wenonah, there were two of these signs, one posted on either end of Mantua Ave. to slow down motorized cars entering the town, (as horse and carriages were still the norm).

Kathryn Mary Fleming wrote: This is a picture from my dad Terry Fleming. He thought it might be of interest to people who grew up in Wenonah during the 1960's. This is a Pony league team from 1964? He thinks he knows who everyone is and tag yourself if you want. Send any questions my way!
Who can tell us more about this young woman who appeared in the 1880 US Census for Wenonah? In that census she was living with her father and grandfather. You can click on the link below to see the Census page. I saw it offered on eBay.
