The symbol does indeed represent the dutch cyclist organisation ANWB, a winged wheel as Rich already mentioned. This symbol was used troughout the netherlands starting in 1892 with wooden examples and from 1896 with metal ones, with already 4000 of them in 1939. From 1934 a smaller model was introduced. There was also a "mushroom" version from 1919 onwards which stands close to the ground with 2000 of those by 1942. The first signs were used between large cities in 1908 and by 1913 the 2000 example was unveiled so I imaging that also provincial and smaller roads got their own signs by then. information from: http://www.anwb.nl/over-anwb/kernact...wijzering.html http://www.anwb.nl/binaries/pdf/over...3175_28014.pdf
