Abstract: A system for mounting a sign on a stanchion and a method of using the system for mounting signs are provided. The system includes a bracket that can be mounted onto the upper end of the stanchion and a sign frame that can be mounted onto the bracket. The sign frame supports the sign in an upright position. The bracket has a base with an open lower end that can be lowered down onto the upper end of the stanchion to mount the bracket. The bracket has a support member attached to the base for mounting the sign frame onto the bracket. The support member has a pair of opposing openings that extend through the support member. The sign frame has a pair of frame mounting rods that can be inserted downward through the openings to mount the sign frame onto the bracket.
