Colorado 67 (Colorado) Road Sign Hoodie - Design Overview
This hoodie showcases the evolution of the Colorado 67 road sign, a visual journey through the history of Colorado's iconic highway system. The design celebrates the distinct eras of the route marker, offering a striking display of Colorado's rich heritage.
1920s Design: A Nod to History
The design opens with the 1920s version of the road sign, a nod to the early Colorado State Highway Department. This graphic features a black background with white lettering, reflecting the era's hand-stenciled or locally-made signage. The words "COLORADO" are displayed above the large route number "67", all within an outline of the state. This design embodies a time when highways were primarily dirt or gravel paths, and signs were made in local county shops. It's a tribute to the raw simplicity of early road travel.
1940s-1950s Design: A Classic Look
The next iteration showcases the 1940s-1950s embossed steel sign, a classic black-background design that would have been a common sight during the mid-20th century. White, raised lettering presents "COLORADO" at the top and the large "67" centered below, enclosed by a white rectangular outline. This design reflects the era before reflective sheeting, when durability was paramount. It represents a period of growth and development in Colorado's highway infrastructure, capturing a distinct visual memory of the era.
Modern Design: Bold & Standardized
The design culminates with the modern Colorado 67 road sign. This design adopts the CDOT-standard: a white background emblazoned with bold, black lettering. The word "COLORADO" in small uppercase letters is above the large number "67". This standardized layout is immediately recognizable and consistent with US highway conventions. It represents the evolution of road safety and efficiency, symbolizing the state's ongoing commitment to a modern transportation system. The shift to a modern, reflective sign symbolizes a new era in road design and the integration of advanced technologies. It is a symbol of Colorado's future, built on the foundations of its historic past.
