The Outdoor Advertising A-Stand Mockup by Creatsy is an A-frame sign mockup that puts your poster on a sidewalk A-stand set out on a real street, the kind of sandwich board a cafe or shop props by the door to pull people in. It comes as a single layered PSD at 6400 x 4000 px and 300 dpi, big enough to print at poster size or crop in tight on the artwork. The board sits at a natural viewing angle, low and forward, the way a real A-frame leans out toward foot traffic.
An A-stand is a shop's silent salesman: it works the pavement while the staff work inside, and it has about two seconds to stop someone walking past. This mockup lets you test whether your poster does that job before you print it, shown at street scale with real daylight, a paved setting, and the soft shadows of an outdoor scene already around it. Swap the poster and re-export, and you have a second promo staged in the same spot, which is handy when a shop rotates a sign through the week.
Your design goes on through a smart object. Double-click the sign face, drop in your poster or promo, and save - it lands on the board with the scene's light and perspective on top, so it reads like a printed sign standing on the sidewalk rather than a flat export. The board arrives blank; the red "open today" poster in the previews is placeholder artwork to show the effect, and it is not included. You bring the poster, and the street, the light, and the stand are already set.
Use it to present a promo or opening sign to a cafe or retail client, to mock up a menu board or event sign, or to build an Etsy or Creative Market listing for a poster or signage template. One PSD covers a shoot that would otherwise mean printing a real board and carrying it out to the curb for photos.

It suits graphic and signage designers presenting a sidewalk sign, cafes, bars, restaurants, and shops proofing a promo or opening board, and event or marketing teams mocking up a wayfinding or announcement sign. It works for open signs, daily specials, sales, menus, event directions, and pop-up promos. It is a quick win for a market stall, a pop-up, a real estate open house, or a festival booth that needs a clear sign out front, and for a print shop showing a client a proof before a run. If you design posters or signage and want a real street preview without printing a board, this is built for it.
