Colorado 36 1952 (Colorado) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a vintage design, paying homage to the 1952 Colorado Route 36 road sign. The artwork prominently showcases the distinct visual identity of U.S. Route 36 in Colorado during that era. The design is a direct representation of a piece of Colorado's transportation history.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central element of the design is a square-shaped road sign. The words "COLO" are emblazoned across the top of the sign, followed by the bold number "36" in a style representative of the mid-20th century. The simple yet iconic layout reflects the straightforward purpose of wayfinding and road identification.
Meaning and Symbolism

It evokes a sense of nostalgia, recalling a time when the open road and the promise of exploration were central to the American experience. The design symbolizes the evolution of Colorado's transportation system and the historical importance of US 36 in shaping the state's growth, particularly with the opening of the Denver-Boulder Turnpike.
