If I recall the story correctly, Caltrans replaced the guerrilla sign with an official one in the same location, and returned the replica to the artist.

Yeah, I think they mention that in the article. In 2008, you can see the original. In the most recent picture, you can see the official replacement.

I mean they replaced it back in ~2001 so 2008 was the official version. Not that it makes a real difference.

Unfortunately, they didn't return it to the artist :(

They didn't know where it came from so they just junked it.
