My first guess was a Civil Defense Marker from the 1950s, followed by the thought of an in-store directional. But it led nowhere and merely pointed up with no elevator or escalator to be seen. Possible it’s a symbol or icon with standard meaning, but I know it not. Please comment if you can devine the use of this confusing Store Navigation Directional Sign.
