Ellipse Sign 58 (United States) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the iconic "Ellipse Sign 58," a classic piece of American road signage design. The artwork replicates the M1-5 sign as specified in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the official guide for traffic control devices in the United States.
Design Elements
The central element of the design is an elliptical shape, a simple oval frame. Within this shape, a prominent number, "58" is displayed. The design adheres strictly to MUTCD standards, featuring a black number set against a white background within the elliptical shield. This straightforward contrast ensures maximum visibility and legibility.
Meaning and Symbolism
The Ellipse Sign, in this context, represents a state-numbered highway route. The number "58" is a specific example, demonstrating how this design functions as a route marker. The ellipse shape is the standard used for state routes, differentiating them from other route systems like U.S. Routes and Interstates, which have their own distinct shield designs.
The design's primary function is to provide clear and concise information to drivers, confirming the numbered route they are traveling on. This signifies a navigational aid rather than a regulatory instruction, such as a stop sign.
