I almost drove off the road when I saw it. This 13 is big, it’s about seven feet high.

Of course, I immediately thought of this thread.

Appreciate your comments.

13 with a warning, very sensitive. Maybe enough for triskaidekaphobia :)

Almost a magic square

You have a 13 allright, and also a 39 (3 times 13). But then most of the numbers you can form in any direction are primes, except those ending by 2 (and 21):
13
19
23
29
31
91

Interesting find Massimo.
93 is not a prime, but close.

  I found another one of those streetlights. I can see now they are numbered in sequence by zone. It gives me hope of finding more  :)

93 is not in my list of primes...

Here's another one, a somewhat hidden 13

Thank you Fons. If you see the date on the name, it was taken a while ago and I forgot about it   ::)

That turquoise blue reminds me of italian police cars... And they have emergency phone number 113 stamped on the side...
Maybe the man/woman painting the note forgot a 1 ? EVEN BETTER
