Abstract: An outdoor support post includes an anchor ground rod, a base post member including a tubular sheath, an extension post member including a tubular sheath, and a cross post member including a tubular sheath that is perpendicularly mountable to the extension post member for supporting an article thereon. The anchor member includes an angle-iron and two inverted L shaped extensions. One of the L-shaped extensions partially penetrates the ground with the angle-iron and partially extends with the angle-iron in engaging abutment within the base post member for bracing support of the base post member. The second L-shaped extension partially extends with the angle-iron in engaging abutment within the extension post member and in engaging abutment within the base post member for bracing support of both the extension post member and the junction of the base post member and the extension post member.

Abstract: An outdoor sign post apparatus adapted for selective assembly and disassembly, utilizes an anchor ground rod, a base post member with a central longitudinal opening for mounting on the ground rod, an extension post member for telescopical mounting to the base post member in alignment therewith, and a cross post member compatibly notched with the extension post member for mounting thereto in substantially perpendicular relationship. The components of the sign post apparatus are easy to erect and dismantle and to readily transport so as to facilitate repeated temporary use thereof.
