Yes, it\u2019s legitimate.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you might be wondering why you can\u2019t just put up a sign. You can. When it comes to longevity, signs can be blown off trees (or fence posts which are also often painted purple), be bleached by the sun over time, and undergo wear and tear that could make it less effective.
